Geographical competence is made up of geographical knowledge, specific geographical skills, models of reasonable behavior related to a valuable and emotional attitude to the problems of the people on Earth, human activities and the natural environment directly related to sustainable development. Project work is a complex methodological tool aimed at complex educational goals, very suitable for forming geographical competence for sustainable development. The projects give a wide range of practical opportunities for realization, a great „freedom” in the work of the students. The results of the project activity are multiplied in a wide range of activities and events.
