Adapted PERL methodology for Baltic countries

The awareness of the human impact on the environment has increased, and there is a greater focus on personal as well as global consequences of individual lifestyle choices, unfortunately, sustainable development is still not a central topic of educational system in the Baltic states. To solve this problem, The Lithuanian Children and Youth Centre (LCYC) has started Erasmus + project „Jump into Sustainable Lifestyle“.

The aim of this project is to intensively disseminate and adapt innovative practices of education for sustainable development in partnering countries.

Project partners created a toolkit for teachers by adapting PERL methodology to the needs of Baltic countries.

We invite all teachers and educators to use this material.

Sustainability requires that citizens have certain key competencies.

The toolkit has been split in parts to help teach those key sustainable development competencies. You can use activities by competence taking into account what kind of learning experience, behavior you need, how much time you have available. Each activity includes a list of the competencies that the activity engages with, and teachers may target these specific competencies for students talk about and reflect on during discussion.
