EDUCATION, CREATIVITY AND SOCIAL ENGAGEMENT The main focus of EducArt's work is the development and implementation of modern training methods and their creative use in the field of language learning for children with other mother tongues, as well as the education of pedagogues in this field. The ratio of content to form is a central issue in art because identical content can always be presented through different forms. The same applies to education: the same content can and should be presented in different forms for different target groups. The EducArt International Association was created by socially active adherents working in the fields of education and art. The name of our organization EducArt combines the words education and art. We believe that they are the foundation of an intelligent, open and socially responsible society.

Established in 1981, the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) is one of the world's largest environmental education organisations, with over 100 member organisations in 81 countries. At the heart of the FEE are our five programmes. Coordinated by the Head Office in Copenhagen and implemented by our members around the world, our programmes aim to bring positive change on a global scale: The internationally recognized Eco-Schools programme engages young people in quality environmental education and meaningful action. Through a seven-step framework, pupils are empowered and motivated to drive change and improve environmental awareness in their school, local community and beyond. Close to 50,000 schools around the world are part of the Eco-Schools programme. Learning about Forests (LEAF) advocates for outdoor learning and hands-on experiences, allowing students to connect with nature and develop a deeper understanding of the natural world. While the LEAF programme started with a focus on tree-based ecosystems, today it includes a diversity of ecosystems to foster skills and knowledge by exposing learners to outdoor experiences. LEAF is implemented in 28 countries. Young Reporters for the Environment (YRE) is an award-winning programme that empowers young people to take an educated stand on environmental issues they feel strongly about and gives them a platform to articulate these issues through the media of writing, photography and video. Over 300,000 students engage in the YRE programme yearly. The iconic Blue Flag programme is one of the world's most recognized eco-tourism awards for beaches, marinas, and tourist boat operators. In order to qualify for the Blue Flag, a series of stringent environmental, educational, safety, and accessibility criteria must be met and maintained. Over 5,000 beaches, marinas and tourism boats are currently awarded. Green Key is a voluntary eco-certification programme. With more than 4,000 certified hotels and other establishments in 60 countries, Green Key is the leading standard for excellence in the field of environmental responsibility and sustainable operation within the tourism and hospitality industry. With 40 years of impactful experience in Education for Sustainable Development (ESD), FEE's strategic plan - GAIA 20:30 - prioritises climate action across all five programmes to address the urgent threats of climate change, biodiversity loss and environmental pollution. FEE's Environmental Education Principles The member organisations of FEE have agreed upon these principles to guide our work towards excellence in EE/ESD: 1. Ensure that participants are engaged in the learning/teaching process. 2. Encourage participants to make reasonable decisions and actions on real life sustainability issues. 3. Encourage participants to work together actively and involve their communities in collaborative solutions. 4. Support participants to examine their assumptions, knowledge, and experiences, in order to develop critical thinking and to be open to change. 5. Encourage participants to be aware of cultural practices as an integral part of sustainability issues. 6. Encourage participants to share inspirational stories of their achievements, failures, and values, to learn from them and to support each other. 7. Continuously explore, test and share innovative approaches, methodologies, and techniques. 8. Ensuring continuous improvements through monitoring and evaluating are central focus of our programmes. FEE's overall Mission is to engage and empower people through education in collaboration with our members and partners worldwide.

The mission of the "Maxim Gorky" community center in the village of Eremia is to support the cultural and social progress of the local community. Through various cultural and social initiatives, the community center aims to enrich the lives of local residents and unite them around common values and interests. Key aspects of the community center's mission include: Cultural Events: The community center plays an active role in organizing diverse cultural events such as concerts, exhibitions, theatrical performances, and literary evenings. These events contribute to the enrichment of the community's cultural life. Library Services: The community center features a library where people can borrow books or enjoy reading in a comfortable environment. This promotes literacy, knowledge sharing, and provides a space for intellectual growth. Cinema: The community center also houses a cinema that, unfortunately, requires restoration. The cinema is envisioned to be a future platform for screening films and fostering film appreciation within the community once restoration is completed. Preservation of National and Cultural Heritage: By conducting traditional events and studying local history and culture, the community center contributes to preserving and transmitting the valuable heritage of the community to future generations. Promotion of Active Citizenship: The community center encourages active participation of local residents in public life, motivating them to engage with societal and political issues and contribute to improving the local environment. Formation of Personality and Values: The community center serves as a space where young people learn about tolerance, respect for diversity, community values, critical thinking, and analytical skills. Thus, the "Maxim Gorky" community center in the village of Eremia becomes a hub for culture and social interaction, offering opportunities for literary engagement, cultural exploration, and community development. The presence of a cinema, though in need of restoration, holds the potential to further enhance the cultural experiences and entertainment options available to the local residents.

The main aims of the Society are study, conservation and restoration of flora and fauna in natural ecosystems, their preservation for future generations and raising public awareness on the problems of nature conservation.

EHEES, Elephant Haven, European elephant sanctuary, is a sanctuary/retirement home for elephants from European zoos and circuses, which answers a legal need and requests from private owners. EHEES is a care center which offers the elephants a place for life and where their natural needs are respected and their diet is appropriate. It enables them to be re-socialized and rehabilitated in a protected environment. This is the true story of Gandhi and Delhi, Asian elephants, our two first retired residents in EHEES, the only elephant sanctuary in Europe. Indeed, in recent years, it has become both appropriate and necessary to create elephant placement centers in Europe. Private elephant owners, animal parks, zoos and other organizations may need a place for their elephant(s) to live. Almost all European countries ban wild animals from circuses, including France, where EHEES is situated. Bringing them back to their country of origin is not always possible. There was no place for housing the elephants in Europe. Retired elephants from zoos and circuses, like Gandhi and Delhi, our 2 first residents, have now a place for life. They, and the future other residents of Elephant Haven, need a lot of attention. Elephant Haven is expanding to be able to offer more elephants a place for life. Informative programmes about elephants and their behavior, in captivity and in the wild, will be organized to have a better understanding of elephants, as well as local fauna and flora. All this encourages a re-connection with nature and with all her creatures, to raise awareness and respect for the environment.
