EcoLogicaCup is a national team-based ecology competition, organized by the University of Salento – Museum on Ecology of Mediterranean Ecosystems and LifeWatch Italy. It aims to make ecological and Environmental Education and Sustainability topics accessible, in the context of the United Nations’ Agenda 2030, and is aimed at primary and secondary school students.
Participation is completely free. Teams, guided by a teacher tutor, participate in the final competition after passing the selections through a series of online training sessions with multiple-choice quizzes.
The initiative aims to support science education in schools by leveraging the cooperative and competitive spirit of students through game dynamics, offering additional motivation to approach the study of natural sciences and ecology. The best teams from the training sessions and the overall winners of the final competition receive prizes in an official ceremony.
