TC Sustain Ability is a 6 day course which brings together 15 youth workers interested in working with green topics.

Sustain Ability is a training course which aims to provide youth workers with tools and ideas to work with young people addressing “green topics” from different angles. Sustainability is a wide topic and we plan to delve deeper into only a few points such as green politics, circular economy, food sovereignty, ecoanxiety, depopulation. The aim is to work together on finding ways to bring these topics to the table in a fun way without producing the effect of catastrophe. We will share our good practices and hope to open up discussions while developing methodologies and solutions..

It is designed as a training and networking opportunity where we will also have time to get to know each other, visit different green and community-based initiatives in Zaragoza and have time to brainstorm for future synergies.

Objectives

-Develop new NFE tools and methodologies

– Expand information and knowledge by offering tools that will help young people in democratic and civic participation.

-Provide resources and relevant information for the development of critical thinking.

-To broaden the participants’ vision beyond their territories by bring Europe and its environmental policies closer.

There will be an online webinar organized on 9th of January from 16:00 to 18:00 so that we can all get to know each other as well as the programme before the TC.
