Goal : This international training course will support youth workers in integrating climate change and sustainability perspectives into their professional activities. It recognises that young people are among the most affected by the accelerating climate crisis, facing environmental, social, emotional, and intergenerational challenges. The course will explore global trends related to climate change, develop a shared understanding of sustainability, and emphasise climate justice and equity.
Participants will study real-life community and youth-led climate initiatives, practice non-formal learning tools, and learn youth work approaches that help young people develop competencies for sustainable living and active citizenship. The training also supports participants in designing local and participatory climate action initiatives that amplify young people’s voices and foster intercultural dialogue, experience exchange, networking, and partnership building.
Accommodation, food, and local transportation costs are covered by the host organisation. Travel reimbursement will be provided following Erasmus+ rules, and participants receive a Youthpass certificate recognising competence development during the activity.
Participants from: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine, Erasmus+ Youth Programme countries, Western Balkan countries
Participant profile: Youth workers, youth leaders, youth project managers, mentors or educators engaged in informal youth work. Participants should have motivation to integrate climate and sustainability into their daily practice and a good command of English.
