During the meeting, the CHOICE partners discussed together the upcoming JTSE event which will be held in Larissa on February, in addition to recap the activities of the past year and organising a sustainable Swap Market.
The 3rd Transnational Project Meeting of CHOICE PROJECT took place on 1st and 2nd December, 2022 in Janków Przygodzki, Poland. The meeting was organised by Szkoła Podstawowa w Jankowie Przygodzkim – SPJP. The meeting started with a special welcome organised by hosting school, consisting of students presenting folkloristic dances from each of the partner countries.
School coordinator from SPJP presented meeting order and gave opening remarks. Each partner organisation reviewed its achievements and project activities during the first year of the project, with Project Coordinator Deep Blue wrapped up on the results achieved so far and stated about next steps. Furthermore, the partners reviewed and discussed the CHOICE E-Learning Platform, which is being designed by CTI. The consortium discussed the platform’s content and technical aspects, and how it will serve as repository for the CHOICE Educational Paths, as well as a place of discussion and training for teachers on the topics of the Educational Paths themselves.
On the second day of the meeting, the CHOICE consortium engaged all school students into one of the Educational Path’s activities: the Swap Market. The activity consisted in organising a second-hand clothes market, with products which were brought by the participants, who can takes items without paying. The activity highlights the importance of recycling and the notion that clothes that we don’t use could still be useful to someone else. The Swap Market was quite successful among the students, who also few weeks earlier watched a documentary on the fast fashion phenomenon and prepared posters about the related environmental problems caused by it. At the end of the Swap Market, the Consortium had roundtable on the activity, how to best adapt it to each peculiar target group, and what could be improved.
