STITCHING THE FUTURE: CREATIVITY, SUSTAINABILITY AND STEAM IN EUROPEAN EDUCATION

The growing need for sustainability education requires innovative pedagogical approaches capable of connecting different disciplines and engaging students in meaningful learning experiences. The Erasmus+ project STITCH (Sustainability Through Innovation, Training, Creativity & STEAM Horizons) addresses this challenge through an interdisciplinary educational model that integrates science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) with sustainability and circular economy principles. Using sustainable fashion as a real-world context, the project promotes creativity, digital literacy, critical thinking, collaboration, and active citizenship through inquirybased and technology-enhanced learning.
