System innovation
The main objective of GreenHive is to introduce a new way of thinking and educating about sustainability with an approach founded on systemic innovation.
Learn to look at the entire system
It's not just about learning concepts or carrying out individual projects.
Rather, it's about learning to look at the entire system, analyzing how all the different parts work together, and how to implement actions that generate value and impact for territories and communities.
Looking at sustainability in a 360-degree way, connecting and integrating vocational schools, students, organizations, territories, and local communities from different countries to work together, share knowledge and needs, create new ideas, solutions, define and develop new skills to face the challenges of sustainability.
GreenHive: a European network to innovate sustainability education, uniting institutes, students, and communities through active collaboration.
Users, academic world, social and private sector participating in the activities of the Green Combs
(Local hubs in vocational training entities)
They provide information, insights, and inspiration on sustainability challenges. They connect people and build a local community around sustainability through events. They offer learning opportunities to students and external stakeholders. They provide opportunities to design innovative solutions through open challenges and workshops.
It coordinates the ecosystem. Provides capacity development opportunities, hackathons, and contests for the hubs. Offers spaces for knowledge transfer and co-creation activities.
Learning and innovation for sustainability
The Green Hive platform is a knowledge platform that connects learning and innovation for sustainability, providing educational resources, co-creation tools, contest management, events, local hub profiles, and an interactive map to locate them
Inside, you will find
A "Resources" section, where the educational materials developed by the project and a Manual for Green Combs coordinators will be collected, open to proposals from the various hubs
A nice map
An interactive map that will show the location of the various hubs.
Tool
A tool for co-creating activities, which will allow the Green Combs to design learning activities for sustainability education together with learners, local stakeholders, and/or other hubs.
Profile
A profile page for each of the 15 local hubs that we have to establish during the project, containing information about the hubs and open opportunities to collaborate on projects and initiatives
Co-creation
A tool for managing contests, which will allow the Green Combs to launch and manage hackathons and competitions on sustainability-related problems.
Events
An "Events" section, where virtual events promoted by the consortium and the Green Combs concerning sustainability education will be collected.
The phases of the GreenHive project
During this phase, our goal will be to establish the theoretical bases and best practices on which to build our learning ecosystem.
In this phase, we will develop a detailed manual on how to set up and manage the Green Combs, our local learning hubs.
During this period, we will create a series of educational resources for our hubs. Additionally, we will provide the necessary training to make the best use of these resources.
The final phase of our project involves the development of the Green Hive platform. This digital platform will serve as a meeting place for all actors in our ecosystem, facilitating resource sharing, collaboration, and innovation for greater sustainability.
