Significant strides have been made in promoting sustainable practices, particularly in youth work and non-formal education conducted by youth organizations. Youth NGOs are increasingly creating frameworks that enable participants in youth projects to make environmentally conscious choices, with youth work playing a crucial role in this effort. Permaculture, youth work, and sustainability converge to form a dynamic triad that addresses some of the most pressing challenges of our time. Permaculture, a design philosophy based on observing and mimicking natural ecosystems, promotes sustainable living by integrating agriculture, architecture, and community planning. It emphasizes principles like diversity, resilience, and resource efficiency, aiming to create systems that are both productive and sustainable. Youth work plays a crucial role in empowering the next generation, fostering their skills, and instilling values that align with sustainable practices. Through hands-on learning and community involvement, youth work can inspire young individuals to adopt and advocate for sustainable lifestyles. Educating and involving youth in permaculture projects can foster a deep respect for the environment and a commitment to sustainable living. This synergy not only promotes ecological stewardship but also builds resilient communities capable of adapting to and mitigating environmental challenges. Integrating permaculture into youth work initiatives provides practical, real-world applications of sustainability principles, nurturing a generation of environmentally conscious and proactive individuals. Youth workers can spearhead community efforts towards sustainability, ensuring a healthier planet for future generations. This approach transforms local landscapes and mindsets, paving the way for a sustainable future based on cooperation, innovation, and respect for the natural world This project stems from a previous project which aimed to introduce permaculture and ecobuilding basics in youth work between France and Guadeloupe. Some of the participants of that project took part in it and felt ready to step up for a new one specifically on the topic of permaculture. This project mixes a consortium of experienced youth NGOs along with new ones either on the topic itself or in the Erasmus+ field. Our project will present a range of methods that reflect the diverse practices of permaculture. Our project relates to the idea of sustainable development and the necessity of sustainably using the environment as a resource for youth in rural and urban areas. It will mainly dive into the topics of our adaptation to climate change and the management or design of the rural, urban, agricultural and forestry landscapes. It will also, to a lesser extent, foster ideas for youth to establish environment-based businesses in local communities such as eco-tourism; bio-agriculture and community development projects. We envision permaculture as an effective tool to involve and build a nexus of union between all the partners involved in this project and transfer to youth workers sustainable environmental competences along with a wide range of social and cognitive practical skills. The primary goal of the project is to enhance the quality of youth work by providing a comprehensive learning experience for youth workers enabling them to upgrade their permaculture skills and apply this knowledge in their daily work. Objectives: 1. Learn the fundamentals of permaculture, permaculture design and empower youth workers with a set of skills with concrete tools promoting sustainable practices 2. Develop the professional capacities of youth workers in designing and implementing activities promoting permaculture based on non-formal education methods 3. Exchange practices and experiences on permaculture among youth workers and young people from different countries. 4. Develop and disseminate a set of workshops on permaculture with youth and youth workers back home
