+ The Regional Environmental Centre for Central and Eastern Europe (REC) was established in 1990 and represents a network of 15 countries: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, FYR Macedonia, Poland, Romania, Serbia and Montenegro, Slovakia and Slovenia.
+ As a successful example should be mentioned the development of the Green Pack – a multi-media education resource for teachers including CD-Roms, Internet, video and interactive games. Participatory teaching/learning methods and corresponding contents provide an opportunity to develop relevant competencies and values to participate in creating sustainable society and to live in sustainable manner.
Currently the Green Pack is being implemented in seven countries (Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, Albania, Russia). It has been made possible by a co-operation with NGOs, teachers, business, education institutes, and the ministries of environment and education in these countries. The Green Pack is available also in English.
ESD materials and teacher training programmes were developed by the REC COs in Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia within the project Schools for sustainability in the Baltic States. The main goal of the project was to develop and practice sustainable lifestyle at the school and in local community.
