 V-Global is a project  about global change. It is directly related to developing and using virtual excursions, as a way of exploring places without generating the greenhouse gases associated with travel. Virtual field trips allow everyone, including students with disabilities and those who cannot afford a field trip, to explore real places and the impacts of global change to help them to understand the issues and causes associated with this.

Hamburg, the Green Metropolis on the Elbe is constantly changing.
