The InNature Project aims to enhance competencies and awareness on biomimicry in the School Community, including students, parents, teachers, directors and Informal Science Education Providers. The project consists of a toolkit which is a set of educational activities for teachers to use in classes, workshops, or other school activities, a catalogue of good practices which is a collection of several good practices in European countries regarding biomimicry in different contexts.
