Objectives

Increased commitment by learners to take positive and concrete steps towards daily sustainable practices.

During the project inception, a Field Implementation Workbook (1 for each of the 10 schools) was compiled by the Project Coordinator and Project Manager, which was used to document full record of all project activities and elements of the stated outcomes. Through all planned school visits, as well as the Educator workshop, the Project Coordinator recorded information and evaluation data, as well as challenges and achievements by the schools. These records are subject to WESSA’s internal project implementation monitoring system that assists WESSA to monitor all Eco-Schools in terms of their challenges, achievements and lessons learnt
