Challenge
Across Europe, schools are trying to become more sustainable, but many still face challenges in teaching and assessing the skills young people need to respond to today’s global crises—like climate change, biodiversity loss, and social inequality. These crises make it essential for students to understand how their choices affect the environment, society, and future generations. Key skills like critical thinking, collaboration, and systems thinking are often missing from daily learning, and existing tools to support this are either unclear, misused, or exclude student voices. True transformation requires more than isolated school efforts—it needs the active involvement of educators, leaders, and communities to reshape education systems and support a shift toward a greener, fairer world. Without strong, inclusive ways to promote sustainability learning, education cannot reach its full potential in building long-term change.
Innovation
GATE helps schools respond to today’s sustainability challenges by offering tools and support that bring real change to classrooms and school communities.
At its core, GATE aims to redefine what it means for a school to be innovative and sustainable. By embedding sustainability competences—knowledge, skills, attitudes and values—into education systems from an early age, the project promotes meaningful, long-term transformation. Using the GreenComp framework as a foundation, GATE empowers students, educators and policymakers to build greener, fairer, and more inclusive school environments. Through a holistic and learner-centred approach, GATE positions schools as active drivers of the green transition and social change.
