We are happy to announce the 1st European School Map Storytelling Competition, powered by the GEO-Academy consortium!
Under the theme “GeoVoices: Map Storytelling for Global Sustainability Goals”, teachers and students across Europe are invited to participate in a joint creative challenge: to explore and reflect on sustainability topics using the power of cartography, geospatial data, new technologies, digital maps and geospatial storytelling.
Through the Competition, students will have the opportunity to:
- Learn and better understand the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals
Learn and practically apply geospatial concepts, technologies and applications - Create digital maps and engaging geo-narratives (storymaps),
- Enhance their spatial thinking and digital skills
- Access modern educational material validated by the GEO-Academy Universities and partner educational institutions
- Explore and raise their awareness on global challenges linked to the environment, society and sustainable development.
Are you ready to learn about sustainability topics and contribute to promoting the UN SDGs to your school community?
Do you want to create your own digital maps and digital stories? Would you like to interact with other schools from Europe under the same project?
