The EUGREENAM project aimed to equip youth workers with skills and knowledge on the European Green Deal and New European Bauhaus, enabling them to support young people’s socio-labor inclusion through green jobs. The project sought to improve youth work methodologies, foster entrepreneurship in sustainable and traditional sectors, and create a learning network for youth organizations. Iimplementing training, hackathons, and knowledge exchanges, the project empowered youth workers to integrate green transition principles into their daily activities, increasing awareness of sustainability, climate action, and employment opportunities for young people at risk of exclusion.
We applied for the EUGREENAM project to address the need for youth workers to adapt to the European Green Deal and the New European Bauhaus, enhancing their skills in sustainability and green job opportunities. The project responds to the growing youth unemployment crisis, worsened by COVID-19, integrating green transition principles into youth work methodologies. It also promotes traditional sustainable jobs as alternatives for young people at risk of exclusion. The partners identified gaps in youth work related to green skills and employment, requiring new strategies and best practices. Fostering transnational cooperation, the project builds a learning network, empowering youth workers to support young people’s socio-labor inclusion through green entrepreneurship, traditional crafts, and climate-conscious professions.
