Outreach and learning support in secondary schools for the Girls Go Circular Project.
Under the Digital Education Action Plan (2021-2027), which outlines the European Commission's vision for high-quality, inclusive and accessible digital education in Europe, and under Action 13 ‘Encourage women's participation in STEM’ (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics), the European Commission expects the EIT and the KICs to equip 8 000 girls aged 14-18 with digital skills by the end of 2021 through a learning programme that engages girls in an EIT-branded digital learning platform.
The Girls Go Circular Project (www.eit-girls-gocircular.eu) will achieve this ambition and involve secondary school students in 8 EIT Regional Innovation Scheme (EIT RIS) Countries that will participate in a 1-day training on digital skills and the circular economy.
As the coordinating KIC of the Girls Go Circular Project, EIT RawMaterials is seeking a professional organisation or project consortium to render the following services:
— engage secondary schools from all the countries,
— train teachers and facilitators to guide girls through the online courses,
— support schoolteachers in delivering the learning programme,
— recruit teachers and students.
