The project covered a number of different topics relevant to designing quality youth exchange projects.We wanted to empowered youth with tools and good practices to create youth exchange on the topic of sustainability. Some background information like project management and project design, the European Youth Strategy and Youth Goals, working with culturally diverse groups and important tools like the Youthpass were covered by sessions on sustainability, its underlying values and how to best utilize the ecovillage environment to showcase sustainable solutions. An exchange of good practice examples and real life stories of YES to Sustainability (YTS) youth exchanges were shared and practical aspects explored like common challenges and how to deal with them, integrating disadvantaged youth and dealing with diversity. Part of the time was dedicated to design new youth exchange projects after a brainstorming phase where ideas are explored. International teams from different partner organisations got together to create a project draft outlining the major characteristics of a youth exchange. These follow-up projects are the main output of the project. The main objectives were to - increase the number of sustainability related youth exchanges in ecovillages as inspiring learning environments for youth - enhance the quality of partners youth exchange projects - foster international collaboration between partner organisations. The follow-up projects - promote sustainable lifestyles among young people, counteracting climate change and fostering the transition to a low-carbon and resilient society - inspire youth to become active citizens - contribute to young people‘s personal development.
