An Erasmus+ KA229 Project

What's

Welcome

TO OUR PROJECT MAGAZINE

"Hello, Dear Cli-Mates!" is an Erasmus+ KA229 project involving four partner countries: Romania, Italy, Spain and Turkey.
We also enriched the partners and project activities with new partners from different European schools through an eTwinning project that received the European Quality Label.
The aim of this initiative is to make children and young people aware of the effects of climate change and how to take action to reduce them.

This magazine is a joint product of all partner schools involved in the Erasmus+ project.

Enjoy!
