Eco-Centric Education

As an Artemis Education school, The Lisboan is fully aligned to our company-wide ambition to deliver an eco-centric education.

Eco-centric

Being eco-centric means using the natural world as a filter for learning, while also making eco-stewardship a priority message within our school.

We integrate topic-based learning with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) so that they become an integral part of the children’s daily lives.

We aim to educate our children to be valuable, responsible global citizens, to be brave and to be active in creating a better planet and a more sustainable future.

Sustainability in Action in Portugal

At The Lisboan, sustainability is more than a concept—it’s something our students experience firsthand. Our location in Lisbon provides a unique opportunity to engage with the city’s rich natural landscapes, green initiatives, and environmental experts. Through hands-on projects, outdoor learning, and local partnerships, students will actively contribute to a more sustainable world.

  • Urban Nature & Green Spaces: Students will explore Lisbon’s parks, gardens, and coastline, using these spaces as outdoor classrooms to study ecosystems, biodiversity, and conservation.
  • Eco-Partnerships & Local Initiatives: We collaborate with local sustainability organizations, giving students the chance to participate in real-world environmental projects.
  • Sustainable School Practices: From waste reduction and energy efficiency to eco-friendly materials, our school will model sustainable living in action.
  • Community Engagement: Students will take part in citywide sustainability efforts, from beach cleanups to urban gardening, fostering a sense of responsibility and connection to their surroundings.

Through these experiences, our students won’t just learn about sustainability—they’ll live it, shaping a future where they don’t just inherit the world but actively improve it.
