The EIEC of the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Agriculture of Georgia continues the process of teacher training within the framework of the program "Environmental and Agricultural Education in School."

Future generations will be better able to develop the proper environmental values and agrarian awareness thanks to the beginnings of environmental and agricultural education in schools. According to Tamar Aladashvili, head of the EIEC "the training will assist young people to realise their duties on environmental concerns and grasp the necessary aspects of proper agriculture.

Trained teachers will be awarded certificates and textbooks on "Environmental and Agrarian Education at School".

2,800 primary school teachers have been trained by the EIEC since the program's inception in 2021. The program supports the development of educators' skills while empowering students to understand sustainable development, how to contribute to it, how to use natural resources wisely, how to preserve biodiversity, what they can do to protect the quality of the air they breathe, and how to use water resources sustainably. Climate change challenges recognized how to act in the face of natural disasters, how to limit waste by acting in the proper ways, and understood the significance of protecting land resources for agriculture and understanding what food safety meant.

These pieces of training are recognized by the Ministry of Education and Science and are included in the list of mandatory teacher training.
