Project Description

The blog was created during the pandemic in an effort to inform the public about environmental issues. Articles, videos and our social media provide information useful to the community. Video of problems in a Greek Natura area for ocean day available on youtube, discussion with the Greek rowing champion Katerina Nikolaidou about ocean day, podcast on forest management and video messages with others to protect the environment on world environment day are a lot for an amateur blog.

Description of the project

Summary

Τhe whole idea started during the pandemic incarceration period because of the need for expression. The main theme is the environment as i studied environmental sciences. So we started to cover world days related to environmental issues. It was effective to have even contacted a Greek champion to have participated and documented a clean-up of a Natura site and to make videos with other young people on environmental day. In addition, the limited opportunities for work and training in Greece are posted for those who are interested. All of this is certainly not the most innovative program, but it has great relevance for this particular area and the size of the blog which is a purely amateur tool made with great love.

Key objectives for sustainability

In Greece, environmental education is limited. our action aims to inform the public on environmental issues. If we manage to increase knowledge, there will certainly be a positive environmental impact on society as more people will be aware of key issues.

Key objectives for aesthetics and quality

The change of platform giving access to sustainability courses could ideally complete the experience of those who want to learn much more

Key objectives for inclusion

The goal is to increase the number of visitors through more educational videos and podcasts. Specifically, we would like to have at least 10 thousand visitors on a monthly basis. To do this we need access to essential equipment such as a camera, microphone, a good computer and access to appropriate editing software.

Physical or other transformations

It refers to other types of transformations (soft investment)

Innovative character

An amateur blog does not have the resources to go to the next step. Access to some funding packages as recognition of our work could boost our impact. We believe that educational videos that are interactive enough can be very good material for the public in this country.
