Collaborations
Transformative Partnership
Welcome to a transformative partnership opportunity with John Britto Academy for schools seeking to make a lasting impact on education and sustainability. Through collaborative efforts, schools can now join hands with JOBA to become internationally certified Sustainable Schools, fostering a culture of eco-consciousness and responsible living.
Collaboration Process
The collaboration process is designed to be seamless and empowering for schools. Upon entering into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with JOBA, schools are required to identify and select a dedicated teacher to spearhead the implementation of sustainability initiatives within the school community. This appointed teacher, guided and advised by the school's Headmasters and management, plays a pivotal role in bringing about positive change.
BIONITY Clubs
The key to this collaboration lies in the introduction of courses on sustainable living, with the selected teacher extending this knowledge to all students. Interested students, forming BIONITY Clubs embark on a collective journey towards sustainable practices. Each club, ideally comprising 20-30 students, is led by a convenor chosen from among the club members. Facilitating teachers, known as 'BIONITY Ambassadors,' undergo online orientation to connect with JOBA's global initiatives.
International Certification
These BIONITY Clubs, driven by the enthusiasm and commitment of students and educators alike, serve as a crucial link between the school and JOBA's international network. The convenor and ambassador work together to organize online classes, facilitating an exchange of ideas and insights with JOBA's country leader. This collaborative framework ensures that schools not only receive international certification but also become hubs for sustainable education and positive change.
