Ecoescuelas
The Ecoescuela, or Eco-Schools, initiative in Spain focuses on transforming schools into eco-friendly environments where students actively engage in environmental conservation. The program is led by the Foundation for Environmental Education and managed locally by the Asociación de Educación Ambiental y del Consumidor (ADEAC), which oversees more than 450 Eco-Schools throughout Spain. Participating schools implement environmental improvements and promote sustainable practices as part of daily life and learning, following a framework that empowers students to take leadership in initiatives such as waste reduction, energy conservation, and biodiversity preservation.
Ecoescuelas is collaborating with Life Terra through the European Tree Planting Day initiative organising events with schools in Spain.
