Multidisciplinar focus: the project starts from a civic education topic, the attention to the environment and to endangered animals with a link to the Agenda 2030 Global Goals, then it moves to scientific issues with the help of all the other school subjects. First of all, the mother languages (Italian, Spanish and French) who helped students learn more about the topics, then English as it has been not only the vehicular language but also the language they used to study and write about the argument, to promote the actions and to disseminate them then ICT and art, very useful subjects that helped students create products developing great skills, that brought them to plan and take action together.
This multidisciplinary approach is reflected in the contents and objectives of the project.
