Objectives

Our youth exchange by the name "Greener Connections" - GC promotes young people's social inclusion and well-being by involving young people with fewer opportunities (unemployed young people, young people belonging to disadvantaged social strata or coming from rural isolated areas) and by introducing them to the universe of active citizenship and democratic participation. At the same time GC tackles the issue of youth unemployment by helping the participants to develop basic and transversal skills, such as entrepreneurship, digital skills and multilingualism, through innovative learner-centered pedalogical approaches and certification methods based on learning outcomes. Our aim is to underline the best practices existing in the areas represented within the project. During the exchange, the participants will be encouraged to explore, highlight and compare the best practices and alternative models existing within their realities, looking beyond the purely economic value corresponding to the explored realities. The main objectives of the project are: • contribute to improve the employment rate within the participants' communities • improve the level of the key competences of the young participants, in particular the ones with fewer opportunities • transfer practices related to active citizenship • promote Erasmus + program around Europe • encourage new forms of experiential and intercultural learning • promote alternative and eco-sustainable economic models.
