Le CMQ IED est impliqué dans le projet Européen GreenCo.
Topics
Environment and fight against climate change | Addressing digital transformation through development of digital readiness, resilience and capacity | Inclusion and diversity in all fields of education, training, youth and sport.
Summary
Specifically, the project seeks to achieve the following three fundamental objectives:
- Awareness-raising of digital pollution: In contrast to physical and visible pollution, on which much remains to be done but where we are making progress at an increasing pace, digital pollution is virtually invisible. It is not visible to the naked eye and, moreover, there are very few news items about it. One of the aims of the project is to raise awareness of the environmental impact of excessive data consumption and propose simple and accessible measures to reduce it.
- Self-assess knowledge about digital pollution: Closely related to the previous objective, once one is aware of the existence and impact of digital pollution, the following question can be raided: how much am I contributing right now? How badly am I doing? The project, essentially through the App, will provide a gamified self-assessment experience to encourage the participation of the younger audience.
- Online training of users for responsible use of technology: the next step up the ladder would be, after raising awareness of the problem and assessing it, the proposal of measures aimed at tackling it. To this purpose, the GreenCo project will develop a MOOC on digital pollution that provides young people with training in sustainable practices that can be incorporated into their daily habits.
Results
The main expected result is an application which helps to increase the awareness on digital pollution in users between 15 to 29 years old. In that framework, the project will produce the following project results:
- An E-Book as an information compilation on green computing developed in four topics: Energy consumption, e-waste recycling, initiatives and legislation.
- A Mockup which contains the definition of app features based on background and objectives, and establish gamification processes.
- Green Computing App development. Its aim is a self-assessment of awareness on digital pollution, inform and give knowledge on it, and promote efficient energy consumption and e-waste recycling.
- Multilingual training Mooc, an online training on how to reduce digital pollution, for final users of the app – students from 15 to 29 years old, but also open to general public. In addition, communication activities adapted to the project’s target audience are foreseen, such as the development of a website, social media campaigns, press impacts, multiplier events, etc.
Finally, project management activities are also foreseen, with the aim of complying with the programme rules and ensuring adequate internal communication.
