At the invitation of <a href="https://www.unesco.org/es/fieldoffice/sanjose">UNESCO San José</a> we were in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, facilitating a workshop for the elaboration of the implementation strategy for the certification of green education centres of the <a href="https://www.se.gob.hn/">Honduran Ministry of Education</a> .
Co-organised by UNESCO and the Department of Environmental and Health Education and Communication -DECOAS, the workshop provided an opportunity to share concepts and experiences in green education in Honduras, and also to identify recommendations for action to establish the basis for taking this initiative forward in a contextualised way in each educational centre.
The workshop was given by our Executive Director, Carla Sabbatini, in her capacity as Consultant for the UNESCO Regional Office for Central America, Mexico and Colombia. Working groups were formed to analyse and compile inputs to provide a document with guidelines for the certification of green schools, and for the implementation of a methodological guide containing dimensions of: teaching and learning, community engagement, governance, and infrastructure and operation.
