ABOUT THE PROJECT

From January 2022 to December 2024, 6 partner organisations from 6 EU countries (Austria, Cyprus, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Sweden) are producing an innovative methodology and a range of different practical, low-threshold materials to reach the project objectives, which are:

  • Foster and promote green thinking, lifestyle and attitudes in youth and marginalised youth.

 

  • Equip the actors in the physical and digital social space (youth workers, youth support, parents, peers, companies/NGOs/local authorities) to become green role models and inspire through micro-interventions.

 

  • Promote social responsibility, initiative and participation in eco-friendly and sustainable action in the local communities

 

The target groups of youth and youth support workers will be engaged in various stages of the process. A transnational final conference will conclude the project.
