18 June 2024 – Coordinator of the NEMOS project, Maria J. Cantalejo, from the Public University of Navarre (UPNA) is a member of the Intersectoral Monitoring Committee of ENEAS 2030 (Navarre Strategy for Environmental Education for Sustainability 2030). A stable forum for intersectoral meetings, the Committee aims to promote the participation and coordination of social agents, companies and professionals involved in Environmental Education for Sustainability, representatives of the Government of Navarre in Spain and other Public Administrations related to the Strategy.
The Navarre Strategy for Environmental Education for Sustainability 2030 seeks to define a new framework adapted to the new approaches to environmental education, closely linked to international debates on climate emergency and sustainability, to the new socio-environmental challenges facing us and to the regional, national and international commitments made by the Government of Navarre.
These challenges, which Environmental Education for Sustainability must address, allow us to define it as a key tool in the search for and implementation of solutions that make it possible to reduce impacts and improve our relations with the environment – from the local to the global scale – as well as to advance towards sustainable development in its social, economic and environmental dimensions.
The ENEAS 2030 Intersectoral Monitoring Committee was launched at a meeting on 23 May 2024, where a draft was presented of the first Environmental Education Action Plan for Sustainability 2023-2025.
About the NEMOS Project
The NEMOS project acknowledges sustainability as an increasingly crucial skill for graduate and post-graduate students to tackle important global challenges such as climate change, food waste and the loss of biodiversity in their professional future. Therefore, the project aims to define a new educational model to integrate sustainability competences in the curricula of food-related degrees by means of service learning.
Co-funded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union, the NEMOS project is led by the Public University of Navarra and includes the following consortium partners: Technological University Dublin (Ireland); Technological University Graz (Austria); Rhône-Alpes Higher Institute of Agriculture (France); University of Pisa (Italy); and IGCAT.
