Project Results
ClimateTeach2025 aims to strengthen European university students’ climate change awareness, sense of responsibility and psychological well-being through four major intellectual and practical outputs. These outputs combine scientific analysis, digital innovation and sustainable educational resources.
1. Climate Change Awareness Assessment Tool
This is the scientific foundation of the project.
The tool measures university students’:
-
Knowledge of climate change
-
Emotional awareness and reactions
-
Sense of responsibility
-
Behavioural tendencies
-
Psychological well-being
Key features:
-
A valid and reliable, multidimensional assessment instrument
-
Applicable across partner countries (Türkiye, Finland, Romania, Austria)
-
Provides comparative data across Europe
-
Serves as the evidence base for the design of the training modules
This output belongs to Work Package 2.
2. European Climate Change Awareness Report
This report compiles and analyses data collected using the newly developed assessment tool.
The report examines:
-
Students’ scientific understanding of climate change
-
Emotional responses such as eco-anxiety and climate distress
-
Sustainable behaviour tendencies
-
Country-level comparisons
-
Areas where students need further support
-
Recommendations for higher education institutions and policymakers
This report will serve as a scientific reference document for climate education in Europe.
This output is part of WP2.
3. Digital Modular Climate Change Training Programme
This output represents the core educational component of the project.
The programme focuses on:
-
Scientific foundations of climate change
-
Emotional and psychological impacts (eco-anxiety, climate grief, uncertainty)
-
Sustainable and responsible behaviour
-
Stress management and resilience building
The programme includes:
-
Four main modules
-
Interactive digital learning materials
-
Practical activities and exercises
-
Assessment instruments
-
Implementation guides for educators and mentors
The programme is designed for both online and face-to-face delivery.
This output is developed under Work Package 3, led technically by Piriteknoloji.
4. ClimateTeach E-Learning Platform
This platform will host all training materials, assessment tools and digital content.
Platform features:
-
Open-access for university students across Europe
-
Multi-language infrastructure
-
Modular learning flow
-
Progress tracking system
-
Educator/mentor area
-
User-friendly design
-
Long-term sustainability
All outputs will remain accessible for at least five years beyond the project’s completion.
This output is produced jointly under WP3 and WP5,
with technical contributions from Piriteknoloji and Polygonal North.
5. Dissemination, Impact and Multiplier Event Reports
This output includes:
-
National and international multiplier event reports
-
University-based seminars and conferences
-
Student participation and satisfaction analyses
-
Social media campaign outcomes
-
Dissemination materials (brochures, posters, flyers)
-
Final impact report
his output is part of Work Package 5, led by Polygonal North.
Overall Impact of ClimateTeach2025 Outputs
Through these outputs:
-
Over 300 university students will be directly assessed,
-
More than 3000 learners will benefit from the educational materials,
-
A long-term, evidence-based climate education model for European universities will be established,
-
The project will contribute to a new, holistic approach combining climate literacy, responsible behaviour and psychological well-being for young adults across Europe.
