The Day of Meteorology our Educational Soul

Datameteo Educational was initiated in May 2021 to provide a common synergy through a voluntary organization to the souls of its members who have already been personally involved for a while in various non-profit organizations. The need was to optimize the potential of the management of the meteorological and solidarity dissemination event called Meteorology Day, which reached its 10th edition in 2021. Many experts on climate, meteorology, ecology, botany, agriculture, landscape, environment and green economy have succeeded in the various editions. Through scholastic research, dialoguing and information dissemination we aim to contribute to various debated issues that can reach not only experts in the field but to students and the wider public audience. We had as a target not only the experts in the sector, the students but also the greater public audience.

We live in a world that advances daily, whilst this is beneficial for the survival of man, it is equally harmfulto the environment. The onlus, therefore, is twofold, firstly, to raise awareness on the grave importance of safeguarding our planet and the fragility of ecosystems. Secondly, to train the future generation to adhere to environmental ethical principles and an environmentally sustainable way of life. As Nelson Mandela put it ,"Education is a powerful weapon to change the world". Against this background, we intend to educate against ignorance, poverty and inequality. So far, we have achieved this through supporting schooling projects in the Philippines by Una Mano per i Bambini www.unamanoperibambini.it, a non-profit organization that manages the School della Gioia a Tondo a district of Manila located on Smokey Mountain, one of the largest open-air landfills in the world.
