This was our first erasmus plus project, and we wanted to use this wonderful opportunity to offer students young participants an experience that will help them improve in every way, increasing their awareness of the climate change, environmental justice, the need for green policies, and ecology as a way of understanding the youth social participation. We also wanted to grow as an organization, build experiences based on spirit of European values, and connect with young people who share the same interests and needs to learn and share experiences and realities.
