On September 17, 2021, the launch of the European Union-Humana People to People Yunnan Low-carbon Schools Pilot Project of Dongchuan District was held in Dongchuan District Education and Sports Bureau. At the opening ceremony, Ma Qiyan, Deputy Director of Dongchuan District Education and Sports Bureau, said that we should raise awareness to ensure that the project achieves the expected objectives, and strengthen measures to promote all schools in the district to fully implement the work of low-carbon and environmental protection.
Liu Xi, the project leader, introduced that the project team has been carrying out various activities, training, meetings and other ways to promote the establishment of low-carbon schools in Yunnan Province, building a platform for cooperation and exchanges between schools to improve the awareness of climate change among teachers and students, and using scientific and technological means to support schools in implementing carbon emission reduction.
On September 27, 2021, the official launch of the European Union-Humana People to People Yunnan Low-carbon Schools Pilot Project of Anning City was held in Anning City Education and Sports Bureau. Project officer Qi Chao shared a demonstration lessons of the lower and higher grades through heuristic interaction including the introduction of the definition of garbage, the harm of garbage to the earth, and the importance of garbage classification. Also, he taught us how to sort the waste correctly through interactive games. The lower grade demonstration course is based on the interest of the higher grade demonstration course, combined with the professional science newspaper, to popularize climate change knowledge and guide students to think in combination with current events.
Project introduction:
Yunnan Low-carbon Schools Pilot Project is funded by the European Union and implemented by the Fundación Pueblo para Pueblo (Spanish member of Humana People to People) in cooperation with FAIHPP (Switzerland) Yunnan Representative Office, Yunnan Academy for Science and Technical Information, Southwest Forestry University, Chinese Youth Climate Action Network, Green Kunming (Kunming Environmental Popular Science Association) and Kunming Good Deed Public Welfare Community Development Service Center with a project cycle from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2023. The project begins by increasing partners’ awareness and advocacy on climate change mitigation and environmental protection, by raising climate change awareness among 600 schools, 70,000 students and teachers, determine the emission benchmark through basic calculation, and then implement emission reduction work in 50 Carbon Compliant Pioneer Schools. Use science, technology, innovation and other means to respond to “climate action” to accelerate environmental sustainability and promote the transition from green campuses to low-carbon and carbon-neutral campuses.
