Centers providing education on sustainable development and adaptation to climate change should, in order to be credible, lead by example and implement pro-environmental solutions. This cannot be done without conscious, educated and motivated teams – writes Ania Dańkowska in an article for the Heinrich Böll Foundation.
Ecological education is an important element of the Krzyżowa Foundation's activity. From April to November this year, we made additional efforts to ensure that our activities are fully compliant with the principles of sustainable development. We wanted to involve the whole team in the process of shaping the changes.
