The OpenPass4Climate consortium officially launched its Erasmus+ project during a two-day kick-off meeting hosted by UniLaSalle Beauvais. Partners from France, Portugal, Italy, Belgium and Spain gathered—both onsite and online—to align their vision and begin work toward creating a European Open Badges Passport for Climate Competences.

The meeting focused on:

• WP1 – Project Management: coordination procedures, reporting, and upcoming milestones.
• PR1 – Eco-Pedagogy Mapping: agreement on a shared format, glossary, and data-collection strategy, with an online follow-up meeting scheduled for January.
• PR2 – Learners’ Engagement Survey: partners defined survey objectives, learner profiles and a clear work plan leading to the first dissemination in March 2023.

The consortium also prepared the C1 training session, scheduled at UniLaSalle.

This productive kick-off meeting marks a strong start to the project, reinforcing partners’ commitment to building a shared European framework for recognising climate-related learning through Open Badges.
