International presentation of the online meter

of the Ecological Footprint of Universities

In the framework of the EUSTEPs project "Strengthening University Teaching and Practices on Sustainability through Ecological Footprint", which is coordinated by the Department of Primary Education of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, an international online presentation of the online calculator of Universities' Ecological Footprint will take place.

The event will take place on Friday 1 April 2022 at 12.00 to 14.00. The event will present the use and operation of the online calculator of Universities' Ecological Footprint, the data needed for its operation and the benefits it provides to university administrations.

From 1 April 2022, the online Ecological Footprint Meter will be available free of charge from the project website (www.eusteps.eu) for use by any European university.

The project aims to help shape a new generation of citizens and professionals who will become aware of sustainability and be trained to measure sustainability using specialised digital tools, thus introducing a new and necessary professional experience to society. In addition, the project aims to support the assessment and reduction of the environmental impact of EU Higher Education Institutions through a collaborative experiential approach based on an innovative application of ecological footprinting.

The project is funded by IKY through the Erasmus+ programme (Strategic Partnerships for Higher Education). More information on the website www.eusteps.eu.
