Carbon footprint challenge

Development of materials for the sustainability competence We will develop and produce new materials for the sustainability competence (PAT)

The project will preduce and edit new materials for the development and assessement of the sustainability competence at the University of Barcelona, following the student-centred framework of the European Higher Education Area. The project will evaluate the emissions linked to multiple student activities, including waste and mobility-linked emissions. In a second step, the project will allow a quantitative and integral of the emissions analysis based of the behavioral changes needed for reducing these impacts.

The materials could potentially involve the whole PAD (Pla d'Acció Tutorial) units of the University in the second step.

Funds will be nneeded for the following materials and tasks: - Edit and produce materials for teaching and developing the sustainability competence, and to robustly quantify the impacts of the activities of students in terms of carbon emissions. - Develop difussion activities and press release activities. - Develop quantitative codes (based on R programming) for the integrative analyses of the impacts of student activities. - Produce and edit materials for assessing and teaching behavioral changes linked to sustainable life-styles. Proximate required budget: 400-2000 eur.
