The GFuture project, short for Green Tools for a Bright Future, is designed to integrate green education and sports into primary education, fostering sustainability, inclusion, and physical activity among children aged 6 to 13. With a strong emphasis on social inclusion, the project particularly supports children with learning disabilities, ensuring they have equal opportunities to participate in outdoor learning and sports activities. By promoting environmental awareness and encouraging physical activity, GFuture addresses the challenges posed by sedentary lifestyles and limited access to inclusive educational methodologies.
The project will develop a Handbook of Green Education & Sport Methodologies, offering innovative teaching strategies that blend physical movement with sustainable learning. Through a combination of teacher and volunteer training, outdoor sports events, and structured educational materials, GFuture aims to increase the participation of children in physical activities while fostering a deeper connection to nature. The project will also include the organization of GFuture Events in public spaces across Slovenia, Croatia, and Italy, engaging at least 1,200 children and 120 volunteers.
Beyond direct engagement, GFuture ensures long-term impact through the creation of an online learning platform, allowing educators, trainers, and organizations to access and implement its methodologies beyond the project’s duration. By focusing on Erasmus+ priorities such as inclusion, digital transformation, and environmental sustainability, GFuture contributes to building a healthier, more active, and environmentally conscious generation, reinforcing the idea that education and sports can work together to create a brighter, more sustainable future.
