To promote changes in consumption in our communities, promoting the circular economy to take care of our planet (7R model). These actions are based on SDG 12. We wanted our students to understand the advantages of this new economy in the context of green jobs. Our students need green industry initiatives, and their motivation should be more than just getting a good job, stakeholder perspective. Education for Sustainable Development’ (ESD) promotes the development of the knowledge, skills, understanding, values and actions needed to create a sustainable world, within environmental, social, cultural and economic systems and their interdependence. Therefore, we believe that this project would fit easily into the curricula and professions of the near future. With eTwinning, students also improved their linguistic and digital competence. Moreover, by working together, discussing and exchanging ideas virtually and in presence on SDG 12, students were able to develop their critical thinking and awareness, as well as their global citizenship competences, such as the ability to work and cooperate in teams in a multicultural environment.
