#Greenfluencers

DESCRIPTION:
#Greenfluencers is an Erasmus+ KA205 – Strategic Partnerships for Youth project that focuses on the exchange of good practices in youth work for enhancing environmental awareness and promoting sustainable habits and responsible consumption.
The great environmental and sustainability issues the planet is facing have been on the current political agenda of governments, organizations and entities for years. In addition, the current pandemic of COVID-19 has given the population a much greater awareness of the relation between the quality of our environment and our health, proving that the way we live, consume and produce is a determining factor for the climate and can have a very negative impact on our health.
#Greenfluencers project is closely linked to these problems and in tune with the Action Program on the Environment of the European Union, which has the objective of building a future where we live in a society where nothing is thrown away, natural resources are managed sustainably, the health of citizens is protected against environmental degradation and biodiversity is protected, valued and restored.

OBJECTIVES:
The objectives of the project are the following:
  1. To share good practices in the field of environmental awareness among organisations that work directly with youth
  2. To work jointly in environmental campaigns, in which youngsters will end up becoming multipliers with the scope of turning them into active citizens with a critical spirit
  3. To analyse social entrepreneurship cases based on sustainability and responsible consumption, in order to discover new possibilities for unemployed youngsters that find themselves in a crucial moment to define their professional future
  4. To involve the youngsters in the dissemination of good practices through digital media
  5. To disseminate the “Zero Waste” philosophy and the circular economy concept
  6. To find joint solutions to environmental challenges at a local and European level
  7. To explore the latest virtual tools in terms of environmental dissemination
  8. To foster a sustainable and healthy lifestyle amongst youngsters
  9. To contribute to making environmental policies a priority in the local, regional and European political agenda
