Abstract: This study presents Green Deal Awareness through Augmented Reality in Primary School Education, an innovative curriculum designed to integrate environmental sustainability education with Augmented Reality (AR) technology. Developed collaboratively by five European institutions, the curriculum aims to equip pre-service teachers and educators with the skills to foster ecological and digital competencies in young learners. Structured into five modules—Green Deal Awareness, Augmented Reality, Environmental Education, AR in Education, and AR for Green Deal Awareness—the program leverages AR’s immersive capabilities to enhance engagement, comprehension, and emotional connection to sustainability topics.

The research employs a mixed-methods approach, combining surveys (N=250+) and interviews (N=50+) across five countries to assess educational needs and evaluate the curriculum’s effectiveness. Findings highlight AR’s potential in visualizing abstract environmental concepts (e.g., climate change, circular economies) and fostering active, constructivist learning. However, challenges such as technological barriers, teacher training gaps, and equitable access are identified.Pilot testing demonstrates that AR-enhanced modules significantly improve student motivation and environmental literacy, with applications like virtual field trips and interactive simulations making Green Deal principles tangible. The study underscores the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration, policy support, and localized adaptations to scale this approach. By merging cutting-edge technology with sustainability education, this curriculum offers a transformative model for preparing future generations to address global ecological challenges, aligning with the European Green Deal’s vision of a climate-neutral society.
