Project overview
AMA Europa – A World Without Asbestos is an Erasmus+ KA210 Adult Education project addressing a critical environmental and public health challenge in Europe: the low level of environmental literacy among adults regarding the risks of asbestos in residential and community spaces.
Despite its ban, asbestos remains present in millions of buildings constructed before prohibition, particularly in Southern Europe. Many adults are exposed without adequate knowledge to identify risks or act safely. The project responds to this need through accessible, practical and visual adult education, empowering adults to recognise asbestos-related risks and engage responsibly at community level.
The project is fully aligned with the Green Erasmus priority, the European Green Deal and adult education priorities, combining environmental awareness, civic participation and inclusive learning approaches.
