Navsarjan – Accreditation System
Background: The Greening Education Partnership (GEP) was launched at the UN Transforming Education Summit in September 2022 as a global initiative to deliver strong, coordinated, and comprehensive action to support countries to accelerate education responses to prepare every learner to acquire the knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes to tackle climate change and to promote sustainable development. As an open and inclusive community of practice which, to date, includes over 1300 organizations and 87 Member States, the GEP aims to ‘get every learner climate-ready’ through 4 pillars of action: Greening Schools; Greening Curriculum; Greening Teacher Training, and Education System’s Capacities and Greening Communities.
As a partner of the Greening Education Partnership (GEP), Paper Ball Educational Innovation is determined to work with schools and educational institutions to prepare & empower learners to understand and act on climate change while promoting sustainable development. To this end, we have launched the Greening Schools Accreditation Scheme that aligns with the quality standards proposed by the GEP.
Pillar 1: Greening Schools Accreditation Scheme – Navsarjan
Translated roughly as Regeneration, our greening schools accreditation scheme is named Navsarjan. Navsarjan nudges us gently and wisely in the direction that is more sustainable and much better for us and our future generations.
Through the activities and actions proposed in quality standard for Greening Schools across the four areas of school governance; facilities and operation; teaching and learning; and community engagement; we intend to work with the schools and educational institutions to help them empower the teachers and learners to learn and utilize the knowledge, skills in their daily lives. This will help the institution as well as the communities move towards a sustainable path of understanding the challenges and acting on them within our capacities.
