At the beginning of December 2023, Viennese teachers had the opportunity to visit 23 Croatian schools for two days and observe colleagues during their lessons. Also, the discussions they had about the similarities and differences in the two educational systems were of extreme importance.
The study visit was made possible by the Erasmus+ project ‘Green Europe’, which aims at increasing pedagogical insight and knowledge of teaching methods, particularly in the area of Environment and Climate Protection as well as Inclusive Education.
Over the last two years, the European Office of the Board of Education for Vienna and the Zagreb Municipal Department for Education, Sport and Youth have successfully cooperated together. This cooperation was the basis for the study visit and made it possible that delegation participants gained deeper insights and experienced new practical methodological approaches. The visit not only strengthened existing partnerships but also paved the way for new opportunities.
