Moreover, teaching programmes in schools are
somehow flexible and open to new learning on
issues such as reuse, responsible consuming
and sustainability, but it is still a small step,
because the whole educational system is
highly channeled towards the needs of
a society based on extensive consumerism,
trade and fast consumption.
The workshops I run in schools are agreed in
advance with the direction; it is important for
school staff and teachers to rely on external
experts/ figures who are willing to promote
and raise awareness on certain topics, because
the perception of students for these problems
dramatically changes and increases.
Some teachers support me during these
events, for instance during weekly workshops,
and sometimes I organize one day- event as
workshops for trainers, teachers, staff.
