SYNAPSES is a European project that supports teachers and head teachers in promoting Sustainability Citizenship in Schools. As one of the Erasmus+ Teacher Academies, it provides workshops and professional development, both in-person and online through webinars and a forum for exchange.

 

Connecting (Neural) networks together, the SYNAPSES Project recognises that tackling issues of sustainability, is something to do with a wide community. Professional development aims at implementing a Whole School Approach, involving all internal stakeholders, as well as external stakeholders and incorporating sustainable thinking in every day practice, rather than looking at sustainability as a project based 'theme'.
