📍 𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐅𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬 | DAY 2 | Intensity (Doing and Experimenting)

Relive Day 2 of our training programme at 🏫, fully dedicated to pedagogical methodologies across the different areas of GREENVERSITY.

The day focused on exploring innovative teaching approaches and practical tools to support the integration of sustainability competencies into higher education programmes.

We concluded the day with a dinner at Restaurant in the city centre of Dijon.
The restaurant was selected as part of a local initiative promoting places committed to a more sustainable approach 🌱

🌍🌱 Until this afternoon, international university lecturers, trainers, educational developers and project partners will continue working together on one key question: “How can universities integrate sustainability across all degree programmes?”

In other words, how can higher education move beyond theory towards genuine competence in order to prepare students for the planetary challenges ahead? 🎓

📍 𝐅𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐅𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐏𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬 | DAY 1 | Alignment (Anchoring and Trust)

Day 1 of our training programme at was a great success 🏫

Following a series of opening presentations delivered by some of the project leaders and governance, the programme continued with the presentation and review of WP2.

The afternoon focused on revising the E-Course for Educators which focuses on on how to implement the CORE Framework. Our Framework translates the European Commission’s GreenComp framework into measurable learning outcomes for the classroom.

The day concluded with a visit to the Philippe Le Bon Tower — which takes 366 steps to climb! — where climate scientist Benjamin Pohl from Biogéosciences - UBE CNRS EPHE talked about the Response Project, part of NetZero Cities.

🌍 Sustainability is more than just protecting the environment.

It’s about balance.

The 3 pillars of sustainability remind us that a truly sustainable future must be :
🌱 Environmentally responsible
👥 Socially equitable
💼 Economically viable

👉 Why it matters to you as a student ?
✅ Better employability
✅ Future-proof skills
✅ Real-world impact

We integrate these principles into higher education through the GREENVERSITY Core, a framework adapted from the European Commission’s GreenComp model.

👉 Because tomorrow’s professionals need more than knowledge — they need sustainable thinking.

By aligning with GreenComp, we :

1️⃣ Standardise our approach
2️⃣ Enhance learning outcomes
3️⃣ Support European Union sustainability goals
4️⃣ Prepare future leaders

These are relevant challenges and opportunities for higher education, aren't they ?

♻️ GREENVERSITY is a 3-year project dedicated to integrating the European 🇪🇺Green Competence Framework into higher education 🏫 🍃

A framework that benefits the planet 🌍

🎯 The GreenComp, or Green Competence Framework, is a reference model for sustainability competences. It focuses on 12 competences organised into four key areas :
🍃 Embodying Sustainability Values
🍃 Embracing Complexity in Sustainability
🍃 Envisioning Sustainable Futures
🍃 Acting for Sustainability

👩‍🏫 It provides a common foundation for all learners and offers guidance to educators and institutions, to design inclusive and effective learning opportunities aimed at developing sustainability-related skills, knowledge, and attitudes 🧑‍🎓

🇪🇺 This framework aligns with the EU’s green skills agenda, supporting critical thinking, environmental responsibility, and active engagement with ecological challenges at all levels of education.

🤝 Over the next two years, we'll be working to integrate the GreenComp into higher education 🏫
