We wanted to develop this project in order to address a need to learn to respect our environment and its boundaries. Every day we make decisions about how we live our present, which affect directly or indirectly the health of the planet, of other living beings and of ourselves, and which are compromising the basic living conditions of the future generations. We don’t live sustainably. With “Live Sustainably: how to live the present without compromising the future” we aim at raising awareness on the participating youth workers of the importance of caring for our environment and most of all to develop competences needed to live a sustainable life and to inspire and motivate the youth they work with. Our target group is youth workers and youth leaders, youth trainers and facilitators, interested on promoting and facilitating environmental sustainability practices among young people. The idea is that they then act as multipliers, disseminating what they learn among the young people they work with on a daily basis. The objectives of “Live Sustainably” are as follow: - provide participants possibility to understand more the current environmental situation locally and globally and improve their competences (knowledge, attitudes and abilities) to be able to choose more respectful life with the planetary boundaries and to facilitate effectively a change of habits towards sustainability among the young people they work with; - equip youth workers with methods and practices to be able to facilitate group processes with young people on sustainable related issues; - encourage critical thinking to learn to unmask frequent phenomena such as “green washing” (or fake sustainability), fake perceptions of certain commodities as “cheap”, etc.; - share resources and tools to inform and raise awareness of young people about the importance of caring for the environment, inspire and motivate them to modify their lifestyle towards more sustainable ones; - join in an international group of youth workers interested in promoting sustainability among the youth they work with. With this project we wanted to contribute to more young people knowing, practising and promoting environmental sustainability, and this way improve the capacity of our planet to satisfy the needs of the future generations.
