The importance of environmental education in schools is very important, especially in this

critical period for nature. For this common purpose educational institutions from Lithuania and Estonia (Šiauliai "Romuvos" pro-gymnasium from Lithuania and Haabersti Vene Gymnaasium from Estonia) created the project "Think Green - Work STEAM" (No. 2022/10058), project period 2022/09-2023/08. The goal of the project: to educate our non-consumerist attitude towards nature in students, to teach them to respect the natural environment and be responsible for a greener future.

Participating schools will use a new approach to environmental education, which is effective and relevant for students - learning by doing. This project will organize joint learning activities and 2 mutual mobility "Class exchange" for 11-12-year-old students (5th grade). Innovative STEAM activities will help students to feel connected to nature, its preservation, sustainability. STEAM activities in the areas of sustainability are very elastically interrelated, therefore in the project participating students will develop their sustainability competencies by changing values system, protecting nature, researching, hypothesizing, and justifying them. The results of the project are to change the attitude towards the environment,

to protect it, to develop the skills of sustainability.
