Explore climate issues with ESA Climate Detectives and Climate Detectives Kids!
ESERO Austria invites teachers and student teams to join forces and participate in the school projects of ESA ESA Climate Detectives and Climate Detectives Kids. Registration is possible every year from September.
ESA Climate Detectives is a competition open to students aged 12 to 19. Teams of students, supported by a mentor, are called upon to make a difference by identifying a climate/environmental problem, investigating it using available Earth observation data or on-site measurements, and then proposing a solution to reduce the problem.
The ESA Climate Detectives Kids is a challenge where teams of students up to 12 years old complete activities to earn badges. This category is ideal for beginners and is not competitive.
Join in and make a difference!
