The project

This project, which is a continuation of the Let’s become eco-citizens project of August 2022, focuses on eco-citizenship and sustainable development.
The objective is to discover and propose, with
you, alternatives to adopt fairer and more sustainable lifestyles for the planet and to become an actor and actress in raising awareness of an eco-citizen approach.

 

Participant profile

This project is a youth exchange funded by the Erasmus+ program. You will need to be 18 to 30 years old. The group will be made up of Italians, Belgians, Estonians and French.

Main activities

For two weeks you will meet through brainstorming workshops, workshops to discover permaculture in the educational garden, workshops to create eco-sustainable products or even visits to eco-places. The objective is to co-construct a common vision of eco- citizenship which will be illustrated by the communication tool of your choice. 4 to 6 hours of work site per day.
