From Empathy to Impact: Designing with Conscience by Maria Vlase

Motto: " The world was not given to us as an inheritance; we have borrowed it from future generations."— Anonymous environmental proverb
The eTwinning project " From Empathy to Impact: Designing with Conscience " was born from this profound sense of responsibility. Its aim is not only to raise environmental awareness among young people aged 14 to 18, but also to empower them as architects of the future, individuals capable of ethical thinking, empathy, and responsible action.
The project is a collaborative initiative between Türkiye and Romania. Marin Coman Theoretical High School in Galați is a co-founder of this partnership, together with two other local educational institutions: Emil Racoviță Theoretical High School, coordinated by Prof. Andreea Ioan, and the Sports High School, coordinated by Prof. Mădălina Stafie.
This international initiative goes beyond presenting environmental issues through statistics and theoretical documents. Instead, it offers students a holistic learning experience built upon awareness, values, and meaningful action.
