Ambiente Italia and Consorzio Oltrepo Mantovano together to promote Edufootprint approach
The main aim of the EDFOOTPRINT PLUS project is to enhance the capacity of public authorities to calculate environmental footprint of activities in its public buildings.
Ambiente Italia and University of Ljubljana support new partners in identifying significant impact areas of public buildings and plan effective allocation of resources and improvement plans.
New partners are organizing training and informative activities to explain the tools of the EDUFOOTPRINT PLUS project (Calculator and APP) through the e-support system.
In Italy, Consorzio Oltrepo Mantovano will transfer EduFootprint Plus tools in one public building, the middle school “Dante Alighieri” belonging to the Municipality of Pegognaga.
The middle school is part of the “Comprehensive Institute of Pegognaga” that includes also one kindergarten and one primary school under the same administrative organization. The Comprehensive Institute has more than 500 students and about 30 classes, while the middle school “Dante Alighieri” has 196 students in 10 classes (for an average of 19 students per class).
Next training activities will involve other Municipalities of the Consortium, Quistello, Sermide e Felonica and Suzzara, that are Associated Partners, and the rest of all the 19 member Municipalities of Consorzio Oltrepo Mantovano.
An informative Conference on Edufootprint PLUS project event will be held in Mantova next 19th May with all partners of the project and newcomers that would like to use the tools of the project to improve the environmental footprint of their buildings.
