Objectives

This project arises from an ordinary meeting of the “Mesa Local de la Juventud” with the young people of Puente Genil in which 3 of them propose the idea of carrying out a youth exchange on environment and healthy life since they consider essential the promotion of a style of healthy life for the care of the environment. The main aim of this Project is to promote personal well-being through a healthier lifestyle and respectful of the environment. The objectives that have been raised in this project are the following: - Increase awareness of the connection between caring for oneself and the environment - Learn healthy lifestyle habits through an intercultural exchange - Improve self-esteem and confidence in ourselves - Promote European awareness through collaborative, constructive, cooperative and communicative work It is also intended that these young people improve their skills and basic skills through different learning models (collaborative, constructive, cooperative and communicative) that will be used in the exchange, enabling the sharing of knowledge and learning from each other, along with experiences practices and visits that are planned to be carried out. We also want to foster intercultural dialogue and social integration among young people through the different forms of work designed (roleplay, creative workshops, debates and reflections, ...), making collaboration, participation and the contribution of ideas necessary. On the other hand, the competences and skills to acquire will favor the autonomy, decision making and active participation of each participant individually, foreseeing to profile activities that give prominence to young people. And of course, all this to be raised through non-formal and informal learning will allow the recognition and enhancement of this by young people. This project aims to solve issues and needs such as raising awareness and awareness among young people about the importance of putting value on the preservation of the environment, and how it is positive not only for the natural environment but also for people. In addition, to show that a sustainable life is viable in balance with the ecosystem through the modification of only some habits in our model of consumption and lifestyle. On the other hand, we want these new ideas and changes of habits to be carried out through participation and the promotion of the autonomy and active life of young people, in order to achieve the need to strengthen a more participatory and interconnected youth that multiply knowledge. And, finally, since this project is carried out with different EU countries, from the first moment, young people are improving their competence in foreign language (English) since it is the language used to achieve mutual understanding between participants. And, on the other hand, during the Exchange, this competence will improve even more, thanks to the coexistence that will exist between them, they will improve the comprehension and expression at different levels (oral, written and auditory).
