The aim of the competition is to promote the knowledge of secondary and high school students about critical raw materials and the circular economy. They have to do a short research on the potential of urban mining and CRMs. During the process of collecting information and making videos, students will have a tutor to provide technical support. Tutors will be university students (who can manage up to a maximum of 3 groups). This process will contribute to the development of transversal competencies of the tutors such as leadership,
management and communication, as well as technical circular economy knowledge and green
competencies.
Therefore, this project contributes to the generation of technical knowledge in the preuniversity and university environment and to the dissemination of knowledge to the society, through the final videos that will be accessible from YouTube, TikTok and/or Instagram.
