The Charter for Schools

ESA in collaboration with the French publisher Nathan has produced a supplement on the Charter for "La Documentation par l'Image", a magazine distributed to schools and targeted at 8/12-year-olds and their teachers.

The objective is to explain how the mechanisms of the International Charter Space and Major Disasters work and to provide an introduction on the use of satellites and satellite images.

As a teaching guide, the supplement also includes three worksheets which can be used in the classroom to check how much children have learned and stimulate discussion.

The supplement is available in five languages: English, French, Italian, Spanish, and German.

The teaching guides and an introduction to the Charter for teachers are also available at the ESA education portal.
