LEARN Project

🎲 Exciting news! The #LEARNproject has developed a brand new #boardgame for children to learn about indoor #airquality in #schools and strategies to improve it, collaboratively and playfully. ☑ 3 sets of pollution, mitigation and learning cards ☑ Aimed at school children aged 9-12 ☑ Available in English, Danish, Dutch, and Greek Does this sound interesting to you? Learn more about our board game and discover how to get a digital or a physical copy 👇 👇 #indoorairquality #horizoneurope #backtoschool #airpollution

Volgers uit Vlaanderen opgelet! 🇧🇪 Binnenkort organiseert de Vlaamse overheid – Departement Zorg de 'Week van #GezondBinnen'. Het belang van gezonde binnenlucht wordt dan in de kijker gezet. Een ongezonde binnenlucht kan leiden tot heel wat klachten en zeker voor #kinderen. Het #LEARNproject onderzoekt de kwaliteit van de binnenlucht in #scholen, en onderstreept dan ook graag deze campagne. Wil je kinderen graag bewust maken op een leuke en educatieve manier over binnenlucht? Download het educatieve #spel van het LEARN project en doe mee tijdens de 'Week van Gezond Binnen' van 11 tot 15 november 2024 👇👇 Samen zorgen we voor een gezonde binnenlucht op school! #luchtkwaliteit #binnenmilieu #awareness #education

🎲 The #LEARNproject #boardgame was a big hit with the children attending the European Researchers Night at INL! Do you also want to try it? Follow this link 👉https://lnkd.in/dyPWnwBs👈 After playing it, children learn about the main #airpollutants present in the classroom, the potentially damaging effects on their health and cognition, and some mitigation measures that can be implemented.

📍 Our partner ENVIROMETRICS presented a poster about the #LEARNproject last month at #NOSE2024, the 9th International Conference on Environmental Monitoring of Odours and #VOCs. Thank you Vasiliki Sideri and Chara Karakosta for representing LEARN at this international event organised by AIDIC, the Italian Association of #ChemicalEngineering. 👇 Find out all the details in the article below 👇 #indoorairquality #airpollution #envirometrics

INL's #CElegans model, used to assess #ParticulateMatter (PM) during the #LEARNproject cohorts at schools, is closely aligned with the discoveries highlighted by the 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine, which emphasise the role of #microRNA in gene regulation.

🌟 Bringing Science Outreach to the Next Generation 🌟 Excited to share this amazing initiative from the LEARN Project! 🎲 A brand new boardgame designed to teach children about indoor airquality in schools through play and collaboration. Science outreach is key to inspiring curiosity and understanding in young minds, and that's why Vrije Universiteit Brussel is proud to be part of this mission! Engaging children in science at an early age helps create future problem solvers and leaders. 💡 The game: ☑️ 3 sets of pollution, mitigation, and learning cards ☑️ For school children aged 9-12 ☑️ Available in English, Danish, Dutch, and Greek Check out the details on how to get a digital or physical copy below. 👇👇 #indoorairquality #boardgame #horizoneurope #backtoschool #airpollution #ScienceOutreach #STEMeducation Carina Veeckman

Indeed, cleaner air matters and MANN+HUMMEL is contributing to improving indoor air quality in schools, homes and by monitoring. To learn more follow LEARN Project, INQUIRE and KHEALTHinAIR EU Project. For cleaner urban air look at EU Project AeroSolfd

📣 Today we are kicking off a new pilot study in a new school in Belgium! For the next few weeks, we will be: 🔹 Evaluating indoor #airquality in the classroom via questionnaires, environmental sampling, and biological monitoring. 🔹 Assessing its impact on the health and cognition of children through clinical examination, questionnaires, computerised tests, and different samples. Thanks to our partners UHasselt and KU Leuven for leading this pilot study, and to all the other partners who are contributing to it in any way, including Aarhus University, MANN+HUMMEL, Vrije Universiteit Brussel and FI Group 👏 👇 Check out the implementation of the previous pilot in the article below 👇 https://lnkd.in/dakV-w3u #learnproject #indoorairquality #horizoneurope #airpollution #airpurification #schools #environmentalhealth #airfiltration
