V program Ekošola so lahko vključene vse ustanove v vzgojnem in izobraževalnem procesu: vrtci, osnov- ne šole, domovi Centra šolskih in obšolskih dejavnosti, srednje šole, dijaški domovi in fakultete. Program spodbuja povezovanje in sodelovanje s posamezniki, organizacijami zunaj ustanove, ki lahko pripomorejo k čim večjim učinkom dejavnosti mladih in njihovih mentorjev v lokalnem okolju in širše. Načrto- vanje in izvajanje aktivnosti poteka v okviru tematskih sklopov – odpadki, voda, energija, zdravje in dobro počutje, okolica šole, biot- ska raznovrstnost, ohranjanje našega sveta in trajnostna mobilnost. Vsaka posamezna usta- nova se odloči za posamezna področja glede na to, kako pomembna oziroma katera je do- ločena tematika za njihovo lokalno okolje. Abstract The international Ecoschool programme is the largest international network of children, teach- ers and educators to encourage the systematic application of ecological curricular contents to date. The Ecoschool programme welcomes the participation of all institutes involved in the education process: from kindergartens to primary schools, the CŠOD (Centre for School and Extracurricular Activities) centres, sec- ondary schools, high school boarding houses and faculties. The programme encourages interconnectedness and cooperation between educational institutes and individuals and/or other organizations outside these institutions capable of helping young people and their men- tors achieve the maximum possible impact on their local and broarder surroundings through the activities they engage in. The planning and execution of these activities takes place within the framework of various themes such as waste management, water, energy, health and wellbe- ing, our school’s surroundings, biotic diversity, preserving our natural world and sustainable mobility. Each individual institution decides which topics it will focus on based on the degree to which these sets of themes are im- portant to (i.e. impact) their local environment. * Dunja Dolinšek, dipl. upravna organizatorka, Društvo DOVES-FEE Slovenia, Program Ekošola, Ljubljana, e-pošta: dunja.dolinsek@ekosola.si
