"Your Energy" is a programme that aims to promote awareness of issues relating to sustainability, and values, attitudes and knowledge among students in the field of renewable energy, human rights and awareness of the importance of the Sustainable Development Goals. It was launched by the EDP Foundation in October 2023 with the support of the Directorate-General for Education (DGE), through the Directorate for Educational Projects Services.
"Your Energy" is a free online platform to support schools, offering, through the use of new technologies and gamification, didactic and entertaining content relevant to students aged 6 to 16 (worksheets, interactive games, videos of experiments and crafts, etc).
The platform is also an important tool for teachers, to whom it provides various teaching resources adapted to different subjects, providing the support they need to arouse their students' interest in issues relating to sustainability, as well as promoting more interactive and dynamic lessons that encourage teamwork.
The platform is free to access and is available at https://yourenergy.edp.com.
Your Energy at hospitals
In 2024, the EDP Foundation and the Ronald McDonald Children's Foundation entered into a partnership with the aim of developing joint initiatives to educate and raise awareness of sustainability among children and young people in hospital settings. These initiatives will take place in the Paediatric Departments of National Health Service Hospitals where the Ronald McDonald Children's Foundation develops projects to support families with children and young people undergoing hospital treatment, to whom it will offer educational and recreational content as part of the programme Your Energy.
