About The Project
QRiosity Park is an exciting Erasmus+ initiative that merges technology with nature to create engaging, educational experiences for children in urban parks.
Through an interactive mobile app featuring augmented reality and QR-code-based treasure hunts, the project encourages young learners to explore green spaces while deepening their understanding of environmental sustainability.
By transforming parks into immersive learning environments, QRiosity Park fosters eco-consciousness, curiosity, and active participation. The project also provides educators with digital tools and innovative methodologies to integrate outdoor learning into their curricula.
Designed to bridge the gap between technology and nature, QRiosity Park promotes hands-on discovery and environmental awareness, empowering the next generation to become responsible stewards of the planet.
