FEE PROJECT                  

WHAT IS FEE PROJECT?

Fee project was a great new project for teaching – a programme that turned whole school, Primary and Secondary, into a resource for learning.  The FEE-Project (Force Énergétique par les Enfants), was belonged to the European Altener Program 2002-2003.

The aim of the FEE (Force Energetique pour Enfants- Encouraging children to save energy) project was to raise the awareness of young people on energy and environmental issues. The objective of the project was for changing attitudes to result in a change their behaviour in such a way that they act in a more energy efficient manner and consider the importance of using renewable energy instead of fossil fuels.

The communication strategy was to work with children in order to draw their attention and consequently their parents to the need for a more rational use of energy resources and of the benefits of using renewable energy sources. At the same time we were aimed to set up an educational communication system for the local residents (to begin with the children, then the parents). By way of a newsletter (and web-site) the project was intended to stimulate awareness in the community of the importance of the environment and of saving energy.

East London Energy Efficiency Advice Centre was a partner in this exciting new European Union funded initiative for increasing the energy awareness of pupils in schools. The project was involved five secondary and five primary schools in the East London areas to develop the project in conjunction with schools in seven other European Union Countries - Estonia ,France, Great-Britain, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Sweden and Belgium.
