The recent scientific discoveries and seeing how little our surroundings are reacting to the dangers of climate changes, we decided to take action! We inspired each other to have a new approach towards nature and to have a more eco-friendly attitude towards everything. The Training Course is created by and for youth workers in order to respond to their need of improving their knowledge, skills and attitude toward the environmental issues that we are facing. They want to develop sustainability competences in order to save resources, reduce energy use and waste, compensate carbon footprint emissions, opt for sustainable food and mobility choices. We believe and know from our own experience that the opportunity of being involved in this kind of project will broaden participant’s horizons in many ways, during all phases of the project.

Objectives of the project:

This Training Course will answer the youth workers’ personal and professional needs, which are the following:

– learn how to better promote environmentally friendly practices

– having the power to organize, motivate and guide youth in taking action regarding greener practices

– understand the ecology problems of their community and how they could address it together with the young people

– learn how to attract young people towards a more environmentally-friendly lifestyle

-learn non-formal methods that could make young people more interested in the topic
