果冻影院 researchers and Perlego run national schools project on sustainability
17 August 2023
果冻影院's Sustainability and Higher Education Initiative has collaborated with Perlego to organise a national project for high-school students on sustainability
The 果冻影院 SHEI team has joined forces with Perlego to run the Sustainable Food Consumption Challenge 2023, a national project directed to raise awareness on sustainability among high-school students.
The Challenge project ran from March to July of this year, and Into University supported the team in sharing the project among students. Arianna Buratto from the 果冻影院 Institute for Sustainable Resources developed a reading list using the Perlego platform, and then Perlego provided a free subscription to any student interested in joining our project. The student participants were provided with a reading list about sustainable food consumption and then, using what they had learn from their reading, prepare and submit a project on how to increase awareness among same-age students.
Thanks to the 果冻影院 Access Initiative, the 果冻影院 representatives organised a final celebrating event at 果冻影院 where the winning student Gabriella Oppong made a hugely successful presentation about her project in front of academics, students and staff from Perlego. Gabriella won a free subscription to Perlego and was awarded an award as the winner of the first edition of the SHEI-Perlego Challenge.
The initiative depending on the close collaboration of multiple partners. From 果冻影院, Nikos Chrysanthopoulos and Lorenzo Lotti from the SHEI team were the main organisers of the initiative. The Perlego team (Luca Ponticelli, Femi Kalejaiye and Alberta Fumagalli) organised the project alongside the 果冻影院 team, worked on the paperwork related to the project and supported the release and management of the subscriptions. Arianna Buratto designed the reading list (with the assistance of Silvia Ferrini) and听Into University supported the projects through their mailing lists.
At the final ceremony, Francesco Aletta gave a presentation about the new Sustainable Built Environments, Energy and Resources BSc (run by the 果冻影院 Institute for Sustainable Resources) and finalist Gabriella Oppong also gave a presentation. The final ceremony was funded by听the 果冻影院 Access Initiative.
