The purpose of the project EduHive through Apipedagogy is to transfer good practices and at the same time develop new pedagogical activities within the innovative Apipedagogy program, designed for enriched classroom lessons. The project intertwines natural science, social studies, and civic education, encouraging active learning through the analogy between bee democracy and constitutional democracy.

​

The program is implemented with the support of the manual Bee Democracy and Constitutional Democracy (Nina Ilič), which provides teachers with structured guidelines, and with the help of ten learning cards called Bee Lessons. These cards engage students interactively and creatively, guiding them through topics such as cooperation, community, responsibility, sustainability, and the importance of democratic values.

The project aims to bring students closer to essential values such as solidarity, respect for diversity, and the importance of collective decision-making, while using the metaphor of the beehive as an inspiring example for a democratic society. In doing so, it promotes not only knowledge but also the development of social and civic competencies, critical thinking, and active participation.

The overall goal of the project is to create a bridge between nature and society, between experiential learning and civic education – thus contributing to the formation of responsible, tolerant, and engaged young individuals.
