Mystery 149 Transition to a Climate Neutral Future Conference
project
Description
Mystery 149 Transition to a Climate Neutral Future was a three-day European Pupil Conference in Elefsina, that was attented by primary and secondary school students (10-15 years old) from schools in Elefsina, Attica, Thessaloniki, as well as from Germany and other European countries. This pupil conference was organised by the Centre for Renewable Energy Sources & Saving (CRES), in collaboration with the Directorates of Primary Education of West Attica, A’ and C’ Athens, the Directorate of Secondary Education of East Thessaloniki and the Independent Institute for Environmental Issues (UfU) of Germany and was placed under the auspices of the Ministry of Education, Religious Affairs and Sport.
The aim of Mystery 149 was to create the greatest possible interaction between the pupils of Elefsina and those of other cities in order to generate ideas for an energy efficient and climate neutral future. Both the schools’ preparatory work and the structure of the conference were based on participatory methods for empowering the pupils, bringing forth views and creating a collective vision. These methodologies can be used as best practices thereafter and shared with the wider national and European educational community, in line with the vision of sustainability served by the European Capital of Culture initiative.
The three-day conference included, among other things, workshops, visits to exhibitions, routes in Elefsina, presentations by experts, round table discussions on environmental issues, educational games, the creation of a resolution and a student march to the Town Hall of Elefsina.
The major part of the project was financed directly by the German Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Action with resources from the European Climate Initiative (EUKI) program, while, in addition, resources from the 2023 Eleusis European Capital of Culture were used.
