AIM OF THE PROJECT

The project aims to bring together passionate young individuals from diverse backgrounds under a common goal: to learn, share, and empower each other as concrete activists for the environment. Both as an individual and as a member of an organization, by making naturally use of the local surroundings, partners and suppliers. The project contributes to the capacity building and hands-on learning of youth within formal and non-formal education, aligning with the objectives of the Erasmus+ program. Environmental problems are much in the news and affect each one of us, no matter which background we have. What we can concretely do is less prominent in the media.  It is crucial to learn our role and play, actively working to find good eco-practice through thought and action. The next generations are most impacted by the consequences of climate change. This Youth Exchange is an opportunity for such active young individuals to come together, share their experience, dive into interactive activities and inspiring group work, in order to gain a better understanding of tools, activities, events and actions greening youth activities, and to acquire practical skills and knowledge in various fields of eco-friendly practices. The program will be rooted in non-formal educational methodology, which includes workshops, interactive games, and collaborative activities.

OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT

  • To foster environmentally conscious attitudes of young people, who not only understand the urgent need to protect our planet but also actively engage in meaningful activism.
  • To equip participants with the tools, knowledge, and inspiration to make a positive impact in their own lifes, communities and beyond.
  • To empower participants to become vocal advocates for the environment, through collaborative workshops, insightful discussions, and hands-on activities that also aim for down-to-earth and tangible results.
  • To encourage participants to establish lasting connections with like-minded peers, creating a supportive network of environmentally conscious youth
