  Energy consumption reserves a large portion of the budget for school
buildings. At the same time, the students that use such facilities are the
adults of the years to come and thus, should they embrace energy-aware
behaviors, then sustainable results with respect to energy efficiency are
anticipated. GAIA is a research project targeting this user domain, proposing a
set of applications that a) aims at raising awareness, prompting action and
fostering engagement in energy efficiency enhancement, and b) is adaptable to
the needs of each facility/community. This application set relies on an IoT
sensing infrastructure, as well as on the use of humans as sensors to create
situational awareness.
