Starting from the fourth month of the “Recycling is the pillar of sustainable development” project, the program entered a new phase: in September, the Ér Hangja Association and the volunteers actively involved in the project began screening the completed educational short films for primary school students in Săcueni and its surrounding villages. The goal of these screenings is to deliver important messages about recycling and environmental protection to the youngest age group in an engaging and understandable format. The short films created so far are tailored to the developmental stage of young learners and introduce topics such as renewable energy sources, the role of bees, and forest fire prevention in a playful, accessible manner.
The educational videos reached several hundred students, who received the screenings with great enthusiasm. Children were not just passive viewers, but also active participants: after each film, interactive discussions and Q&A sessions were held, reinforcing and deepening the knowledge they had gained.
The ongoing objective of the program is to develop environmentally conscious thinking from the very beginning of a child’s school journey. These screenings not only provide knowledge but also offer clear examples of how children themselves can become active contributors to a more sustainable future. The project is supported by the European Solidarity Corps and implemented in partnership with the Săcueni Town Hall, with the collaboration of students and teachers from Săcueni and its surrounding communities.
