The project aims to: - Raise awareness among young people and youth leaders about environmental problems, climate change and the conservation of biodiversity; - Experiment with different approaches to solving environmental problems and integrate these approaches into our current practices - Strengthen the skills of our facilitators and volunteers in environmental literacy and increase the quality of our actions in non-formal environmental education within our organizations - Develop the skills and power to act of young people in solving environmental problems; - Increase the environmental awareness of our partner organizations and institutions and develop the cooperation of transnational networks.
Sustainable Development is one of the priorities on international agendas. It covers all development issues in the world such as energy, biodiversity, digital technology, etc. And environmental and climate issues are part of the cross-cutting concerns that affect our different areas of intervention: international and student mobility, well-being, citizenship, intercultural. Young people, particularly students who are our core targets, declared during our project planning survey that they were aware of environmental issues but did not have enough resources to act appropriately. We have set up a recycling and reuse system in our association which is experiencing good development with more and more beneficiaries. But we lacked the skills to guarantee better service and better exploit all the potential of this activity. We also need to compare our practices with other structures committed to Sustainable Development, exchange our experiences, pool our knowledge and our networks to contribute more effectively to the promotion of eco-responsible actions in Europe.
