Future League application
Below you find all the information you need to apply with your project.
Project video, poster and description will be the base for the jury decision. Please ensure that you have the permission to use all graphics and pictures. Therefore, we kindly ask you to sign the ‘Declaration of consent form for teachers’ and have your students sign the ‘Declaration of consent form for students’. This form must be signed by all students who are either named as part of the competing team and/or seen in the video or any additional image material. In case the students are underage, the declaration of consent form must additionally be signed by a parent or legal guardian.
In the evaluation process, the jury will rank all applications using the following criteria:
- Creativity
- Involvement of the students
- Integration of the environment (school, city, region)
- Innovation and presentation of the results
- Incorporation of the approach of Education for Sustainable Education (ESD)
