The problem of consumerism is a very serious issue in our modern societies. Many people spent their time shopping,we not need, waste a lot of money on the things they really do, students start developing wrong values. Nowadays people have so many possessions, entertainment etc but they are still unhappy judging by statistics of suicides, depressions etc.
OBJECTIVE: The main aim of this project is to draw students attention to their lifestyles, focus on their consuming habits, get rid of things they do not use to charities or other people in need.
The project is designed for 15-17 years olds, B1 level, and some ITC skills
We work with our partner schools according to the plan of activities which can be changed during the working process if new ideas arise.
