After successful internal trials during the Alpha Testing phase, the EcoTrade board game was ready to take the next big step — testing with real users.
What if learning about sustainability could feel like playtime instead of lecture time? 🎲
This question is at the heart of EcoTrade, a pioneering Erasmus+ project that uses game-based learning to teach green skills and eco-conscious decision-making to VET students.
What does it take to transform complex global trade systems and sustainability challenges into a fun, educational board game? 🎲
Over four dynamic days in the heart of Karditsa, Greece, our team hosted the first Learning, Teaching, and Training Activity (LTTA) of the EcoTrade Erasmus+ KA210-VET project - a milestone gathering that turned ideas into action!
In a world facing growing environmental and economic challenges, education must evolve to prepare learners for a greener and more interconnected future. The EcoTrade project, co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union, brings together sustainability, innovation, and collaboration to create an engaging educational experience for vocational students and teachers across Europe.
