Green Club: The Circular Economy as Play and Creative Making
For learning in classrooms and at home
How can the circular economy, environmental data, sustainability, and recycling be transformed into play, creative making, and neighborhood change? Join the club that’s changing the here and now.
Knitwear woven out of plastic bags, pottery made out of sawdust, renewable wind power generated in schools, shelters for local stray animals, and many more creative ideas are all being gathered together on a platform that’s changing the way schoolchildren and teachers understand the circular economy, recycling, and notions of citizenship. Discover the Green Club that’s open to all, where the school student community is working towards a common goal: to overhaul the here and now of their neighborhoods.
This pilot online platform is to be a meeting hub where teachers and schoolchildren can share their ideas, projects, and circular economy data, giving them tools for the collection of environmental data, the chance to exchange proposals, and access to a wide range of resources with which to enrich their classes.
The Green Club was created by the Unit Lab artist collective as part of the European Commission’s S+T+ARTS initiative, and the artistic residency hosted by Onassis Stegi for its “Repairing the Present” program, so that schools can act as catalysts for the forging of sustainable neighborhoods.
Addressed to
All teachers of pre-school, primary and secondary education, parents and students.
