The PEABE proposal focused on creating mobility opportunities for adult learners to address the urgent need to raise environmental awareness through marine sustainability education. By emphasizing the Blue Economy, PEABE aimed to highlight the link between human activities and their profound impact not only on the atmosphere but also deep within our oceans. CSCM, the coordinating organization, believed that understanding the Blue Economy could significantly contribute to individual growth and development. CSCM was committed to spreading this vision and fostering new, beneficial partnerships with organizations involved in education and leisure activities.

Objectives

The project aimed to:

– Enhance skills and knowledge in environmental sustainability through learning and transferring principles related to sports.

– Improve and diversify skills through non-formal training, design, and project management, particularly in areas of specific interest to CSCM.

– Promote the Blue Economy as an educational activity, enhancing the quality and impact of proposed initiatives using diverse and innovative non-formal education (NFE) methodologies.

Activities

The project included a training course provided by Fundacja Pedra for CSCM’s internal staff, focusing on project management tools, competencies, and methodologies relevant to successfully managing projects within the Erasmus+ framework. Additionally, Fundacja Pedra led an English Language course to empower CSCM staff, improving their communication skills at medium and advanced levels.

Impact

The efforts of this project led to a broader dissemination of CSCM’s mission, which integrated Blue Economy education as a core component. By enhancing internal capabilities through targeted training, the organization was able to offer more innovative activities and methodologies. The collaboration with Fundacja Pedra ensured CSCM staff were well-equipped with the necessary skills to manage projects effectively and communicate across linguistic barriers, thereby strengthening their capacity to build strategic relationships and advance environmental sustainability education.
