Our common experience shared with partner organizations during the past two years was the following: 1) A considerable number of young people was more and more dependent on the internet and social media, and a vast amount of their time was spent "online" 2) At the same time they desired adventure and connection in the "off-line" world, but often don ́t knew how to make it happen 3) Environmental issues seemed important to them, yet young people didn ́t see how they could personally contribute 4) Many didn ́t have means to travel or even leave the city where they hung out, thus they were not used to staying in nature and rarely benefited from outdoor activities, which affected their health (e.g. they complained about lack of energy) With our partners, we decided to address this situation by a training course that would provide youth workers with needed tools to guide youth in their exploration and involvement in change. WHAT TO ACHIEVE We wanted to support youth workers in experiencing a sustainable life style as a solution so that they were ready to bring knowledge, experience, and guidance to their youth back home. We aimed to increase education and practice in sustainability and zero waste practice, as we found it crucially important nowadays. The idea behind this was to empower participants for spreading what they had learned during our project in their youth groups by sharing the experience and also via organizing a series of workshops for local high school students. There young people could take part in changing their environment in a sustainable way and experience the power of being involved and active. OBJECTIVES: 1) to raise personal response of individuals to the climate change; 2) to train attitudes of youth workers and young people towards sustainability and zero waste; 3) to support youth workers and youth in personal connection via disconnection from on-line devices. Inclusion of less-opportunity youth, non-formal and intercultural environment and focus on a relevant topic of climate chunge and sustainability were links to E+ program
