Climathon

Innovative solutions by our environmental protection team

Our students took part in Climathon, a two-day innovation-lead hackathon where the students鈥 task was to recognise the problems in their local communities and develop innovative solutions in response to various challenges, and present their solution to a jury of experts.

Our team of Year 11 students, comprising Mina Pavlovi膰, Isidora 艩u拧ovi膰, Teodora Beatovi膰, Tara Cvetinovi膰 and Lana Luki膰, was among the 20 selected teams from Serbia who got the chance to join Climathon and show their innovative solutions concerning the mitigation of the effects of climate change and the protection of the environment in general.

International School students鈥 ideas change the world for the better

International School students came up with activist organisation Volo-student, whose goal is to provide secondary school students from all over Belgrade with opportunities to volunteer at public and private organisations concerned with the preservation of the environment in the city.

This would be a unique volunteering campaign, as there is nothing like it in Serbia at this time. The project can provide a whole new experience for young people, with themselves in the main role, as the bearers of the change of the environmental situation in our country.

Our students鈥 project 鈥 Eco-school 鈥 received a lot of attention from Climathon鈥檚 organisers. It is high time we stopped waiting for someone else to save our planet. It is time for us to take the first step!

We are proud of you, girls!
