The 6 Steps
This methodology describes the structuring stages of establishing an EMA project.
The goal of an EMA is to allow students to learn and make decisions, by being in the position of citizens organising themselves, and collecting information they need to take the best decisions on how to manage and preserve their site. Such a project includes several stages, from its preparation to the assessment of management actions.
