Objectives

Through this project, we aimed to achieve a sustainable balance in everyday life by promoting alternatives such as swapping, repurposing, and cherishing existing resources. We sought to adapt these sustainable practices to partner countries with different economic systems and lifestyles. The project focused on raising awareness about the influence of harmful media and external sources on consumer behavior and empowering young people to make conscious and informed changes to their consumption habits. The objectives were to: • Strengthening Youth Organizations: Empowering them to meet the needs of young people online and offline • Building Cross-Cultural Bridges: Cultivating Awareness, Sensitivity and Solidarity among participants • Think Global, Act Local: Empowering participants to translate global issues into practical solutions for local communities • From Awareness to Action: Empowering Youth Workers to Use Social Media to Address Overconsumption • Youth for Change: Cultivating a Sense of Personal Responsibility and Influence in Tackling Structural Issues
