Similar to the ASEF´s new strategy focusing on the environment, this project also aims to raise student awareness in environmental issues. Being able to take important steps forward the students’ need to be aware of the past. They need to know what society have done for the environment so far to be able to do more in the future. Sweden was the first European country making laws for protecting the environment and the endangered wildlife. In 1909 Sweden as the first European country formed their first national parks. The first nine European national parks were actually Swedish. This year, 2009, Sweden celebrates 100 years of National Parks and nature conservation. Also in 2009 Sweden got its first marine national park. All of this is something that our students are barely aware of.


Each participating student will present a national park, nature reserve, or an item from UNESCO´s World heritage list or another local area that is interesting in some way. It can be something from their own country or the local region, but they are also allowed to pick a subject somewhere else as long as they stay inside the Asian and European boundaries. They can present their work as a PowerPoint presentation, a blog, a website, a movie or use any tool of their choice as long as the work can be published on the Internet. All work will be published on a website with a searchable map of Asia and Europe. The local teacher in charge will supervise the students and after checking the work they can simply e-mail it to me for publishing it on the project website.


Duration: 6 months
