The Project
OpenPass4Climate is a project that empowers students to actively engage in climate action by using open badges to recognize their eco-pedagogical commitments. It aims to establish the first cross-border open recognition system focused on climate justice and planet protection. The project collaborates with universities and associations to integrate climate awareness into academic frameworks, supporting innovative learning and sustainability practices. Through this initiative, OpenPass4Climate seeks to inspire and acknowledge the younger generation's dedication to environmental sustainability.

Green Comp
GreenComp is a European reference framework for sustainability competences, aimed at guiding educators and learners in developing the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary for sustainable living and action. It supports lifelong learning across formal, non-formal, and informal settings, promoting critical thinking and agency for sustainability. GreenComp consists of four interrelated competence areas that encourage learners to embody sustainability values, embrace complexity, envision sustainable futures, and act responsibly for the planet. This framework aligns with the European Green Deal’s goal of fostering environmental sustainability education.
