The project fits perfectly into the 5th National Report on the Convention of Biological Diversity<\/em> and the National Sustainable Development Strategy<\/em>. Both support and encourage the anchoring of environmental topics in the school system. According to this, one of REFE\u2019s goals is to manifest the developed curriculum into the Romanian school system. As described in section 4.2, the connection to the Ministry of Education in Romania is well established and interest was already indicated by the Ministry to use the curriculum and teaching material as a fixed component of the Romanian educational system. This increases the probability of the Romanian Ministry of Education accepting the curriculum after submission, which in turn increases the long-term integration and the project results and their impacts substantially. Additionally, the Austrian Ministry of Education has for a long time supported the lead partner\u2019s education initiative in Romania. Through this well-established relationship, the Ministry of Education in Austria also showed interest in integrating the teaching materials and curriculum in the Austrian school system after successful implementation of the project. This increases the probability to have REFE\u2019S outputs also anchored not only in the Romanian but also the Austrian educational policies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
