Students, teachers, families, volunteers, and researchers came together to celebrate the conclusion of an educational journey that blended scientific knowledge, sustainable practices, and the creativity of the younger generations.The event featured an exhibition of many student works: drawings, videos, handmade items, and green proposals—all concrete expressions of their environmental awareness and commitment. Each piece was accompanied by a “green idea” representing a small but meaningful step towards a more sustainable daily life.The highlight of the day was the Award Ceremony, during which the most outstanding projects were recognized for their originality, clarity of environmental message, and creative quality. The young winners had the opportunity to present their projects to an engaged and supportive audience, receiving enthusiastic applause and certificates of merit—a symbol of the value of their ideas and efforts.The high level of participation and the sense of community demonstrated that GREENAGERS is much more than just a school project: it is a formative and human experience that has ignited a spark of passion for sustainability, fostering a strong sense of collective responsibility.
