TRAINING IN ROMANIA - Training for pupils TG1
Between September and November 2022, the leading partner of the LeNetEco2 project, Danubius University of Galați (PL-UDG), organized the training program for the target groups identified and trained within the project activities (Activity A.T2 Training Events).
The participants included in these target groups will constitute the groups of volunteers who will act in the actions of monitoring the state of the environment in the Black Sea discharge areas of the rivers and tributary streams. In addition to the mission of monitoring the state of environmental factors, the establishment of these volunteer groups also aims to attract a growing number of volunteers from other social and professional categories to cover, through their activity, a greater number of environmental objectives to be monitored in the Black Sea area, but also the development of cooperation between volunteer groups from the Black Sea riparian states, partners of the LeNetEco2 project, in order to achieve the project's objectives.
The first target group was made up of pupils and young people, and between October 6 and November 6, 2022, the group was involved in the training program. During the implementation of the project, 85 high school pupils were identified who went through the training program, being organized into 4 training subgroups, 3 subgroups comprising 20 participants each, and one subgroup consisting of 25 participants. During the training period, participants from each subgroup completed 3 training sessions.
The lecturers of the training sessions had at their disposal course materials specially developed for each category of participants, by the experts of the Lower Danube University in Galati who have been selected by the leading partner (PL-UDG) for the establishment of the Joint Research Team (JRT) of the project. These course materials were also made available to all participants. After completing the training sessions, the participants were tested based on tests developed for this purpose and received international certificates of participation.
