About the EntoFARM project
Promoting Sustainability Through Innovation in Education
EntoFARM is an Erasmus+ funded project dedicated to bringing circular economy concepts and sustainable agriculture into the classroom. By integrating insect farming as a hands-on learning tool, we inspire secondary school students to explore STEM fields, particularly in environmental science, biotechnology, and sustainable agriculture.
Our mission is to empower students, teachers, and schools with innovative, open-source educational resources that make sustainability accessible, engaging, and practical. Through the development of low-cost, small-scale insect farms (EntoFARMs) and a comprehensive educational toolkit, we provide schools—especially those with limited resources—with the tools to teach waste reduction, resource management, and circular economy principles in an interactive way.
Our Objectives
-
Foster environmental awareness by demonstrating real-world applications of the circular economy.
-
Promote STEM education, particularly for underrepresented groups such as girls and students from rural areas.
-
Equip teachers with innovative teaching materials and digital tools to integrate sustainability into their curricula.
-
Strengthen partnerships between schools, universities, and local communities to ensure long-term impact.
