In the project "Zero Plate" organized by SUFI, one team consisting of group leaders from Austria, France, Turkey, and Germany came together to explore common challenges they faced in their youth work and discuss potential solutions through international learning opportunities. During the discussions, they expressed a shared desire to improve their ecology skills and adopt new strategies and good practices that could make their work with young people more environmentally friendly. For example, the participant from the Turkish organization shared that there was a growing need to integrate environmental sustainability into youth work, particularly focusing on raising awareness about climate change and the ecological impact of daily activities. The French participant highlighted that many young people in their target group were engaged in environmental issues but lacked the practical knowledge to take action on a larger scale. The Austrian leader emphasized the need for sustainable practices in youth programs and stressed that their organization sought to promote energy efficiency, waste management, and eco-friendly practices among young people. Lastly, the German leader noted that there was a strong desire to make their youth work more sustainable and expand their network internationally, as environmental challenges were not limited by national borders and working together could lead to greater impact. These group leaders recognized that climate change was a global issue that required collective action. Research emphasized that empowering youth through education on environmental sustainability could significantly contribute to reducing ecological risks and fostering sustainable development (UN Environment Programme, 2020; World Economic Forum, 2021). By sharing their experiences, learning from one another, and implementing sustainable practices in their youth work, these organizations aimed to create a more resilient, environmentally conscious society. Their shared goal was to align their efforts with Europe’s plan to become the first carbon-neutral continent by 2050, making a lasting impact on both local communities and global sustainability efforts. After the initial project development phase, to better represent Europe in this field, the group leaders expanded their network by including organizations from Latvia and Romania, which also shared the same needs. The Latvian organization highlighted the need for practical workshops on waste management and energy conservation, while the Romanian organization emphasized the importance of providing guidance on creating impactful environmental projects. To create an effective training course, the learner analysis conducted with youth workers from these six organizations helped identify their specific needs and set goals tailored to the training course. The objectives were as follows: Strengthen the competencies of youth workers in integrating sustainability into youth programs, focusing on energy conservation, waste reduction, water preservation, responsible sourcing, eco-friendly transportation, and implementing sustainable solutions to overcome challenges. Develop youth workers’ environmental competencies and integrate sustainable, eco-friendly approaches into their organizations' daily operations. Equip youth workers with the ability to design and implement engaging, sustainable, and high-impact initiatives, such as workshops, campaigns, and community projects, while refining facilitation and evaluation techniques. Enhance youth workers' cross-cutting skills, including communication, interpersonal relations, creativity, critical thinking, and intercultural awareness, enabling them to collaborate effectively in diverse settings. Strengthen youth workers' understanding of Erasmus+ Key Actions and Youthpass while improving their networking capabilities to support the development of both local and international projects. By achieving these goals, youth workers could become better equipped to promote environmental sustainability, engage young people effectively, and create inclusive and impactful youth work experiences that addressed the challenges of climate change.
