Citizen Science Program 

The Baltic Sea Project has launched a citizen science (CS) program to support our network of schools to cooperate in effort to learn more about the environment around the Baltic Sea and to contribute to the global biodiversity information facility (GBIF) as citizen scientist.
To live sustainably we must learn from and with the nature, so we can use the resources wisely without harming the Mother Earth. Citizen science helps us to start learning about the nature in early ages and it gives clear results as our investigations are entered to the international biodiversity database. 
Citizen science (CS; also known as community science, crowd science, crowd sourcing, civic science, volunteer monitoring) is the involvement of the public in scientific research - weather community-driven, regional or global investigations. It helps the scientists to reach places they would otherwise almost never visit.
The Baltic Sea Project organizes citizen science campaigns for schools in their network to promote education for sustainable development (ESD). To do that, our international citizen science team creates different campaigns, camps, seminars, adventures, field study trips, student science conferences and observation materials for schools to get involved. Our goal is to give students enough tools, knowledge and practical skills to become active and sustainable citizens. For example...


UNESCO has also started a Green Citizens campaign that invites you to support change through key environmental action level: biodiversity, oceans, hydrology, education for sustainable development and indigenous and local knowledge. They offer a platform for innovative citizen science projects around the globe to learn from. To know more, you can visit their page: https://www.unescogreencitizens.org/
 

Global Citizenship Education Program 

The Baltic Sea Project has launched a global citizenship education (GCED) program for the network schools to empower learners of all ages to understand that while the world gets increasingly interconnected, human rights violations, inequality and poverty still threaten peace and sustainability, and to tackle those locally seen global issues we must become more active in promoting more peaceful, tolerant, secure and sustainable societies. 
To do that, the Baltic Sea Project offers network schools in the Baltic Sea Region many different webinars, seminars, camps, campaigns etc, and helps to connect schools with international partners to discuss world issues together which might help them to find possible solutions on local or regional level that can contribute to the better condition on the global scale. For example...

International virtual camp "Digital Årø 2021" for development of global citizenship skills (2021)

Seminar on global challenges related to climate change, forced migration and human rights (2021)


Global citizenship education (GCED) is also a strategic area of UNESCO's Education Sector program and builds on the work of peace and human rights education. It aims to instil in learners the values, attitudes and behaviors that support responsible global citizenship: creativity, innovation, and commitment to peace, human rights and sustainable development.

    These tourists, however, are considerably more thrifty these days. Roaming costs that are too high will no longer be tolerated by the company's bottom line. The goal of this essay is to explain why a non-steering IoT SIM Card is necessary for those whose work requires them to travel often.
