The project aimed to strengthen the capacity of youth workers, educators, and youth in the field of Climate Change & Biodiversity Sustainability through innovative, practice-oriented and digitally supported education. The main objectives were to: • develop and provide high-quality methodological tools (Capacity Building Pack – WP2) for youth workers and educators • support youth in acquiring knowledge, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills through local trainings and workshops (WP3) • promote innovative learning approaches such as STEAM and Place-Based Education, combining theory with real-life practice • enhance digital competences through creative tools, online learning materials, and interactive resources (WP3–WP4) • foster civic engagement and political activism, encouraging youth to actively contribute to sustainability actions and awareness campaigns • strengthen cross-sectoral and transnational cooperation among organisations, experts, and stakeholders (WP1, WP4) • ensure wide dissemination and accessibility of results through OER platforms, social media, and events (WP4)
The project was developed to address the urgent need to strengthen knowledge, skills, and engagement in Climate Change & Biodiversity Sustainability among youth workers and youth. Partners identified a lack of practical, innovative educational tools and limited awareness of environmental challenges, especially among young people who will be most affected in the future. The project aimed to support youth workers and educators by providing structured methodologies and to empower youth through education, critical thinking, and active participation. It addressed the need for cross-sectoral cooperation among NGOs, educational institutions, and stakeholders to develop more effective and sustainable solutions. A key focus was on youth engagement, including improving environmental awareness, developing digital creativity and social media skills, and fostering critical thinking and problem-solving. The project also promoted civic engagement and political activism, encouraging young people to take action and contribute to decision-making processes related to sustainability.
