Objectives
OpenPass4Climate : Empowering Climate Education and Recognition in a Learning Society
OpenPass4Climate's objective is to experimentally implement the European Open Badges Passport across partner universities, fostering shared ownership among stakeholders. Positioned as an open and horizontal initiative, it aspires not only to facilitate climate education but also to contribute to the construction of an open and learning society centred around the recognition of talents, skills, and aspirations in the domain of climate justice and planet protection.
To achieve these objectives, the OpenPass4Climate Consortium will work on multiple project results (PR):
