YOUTH'S PROPOSALS for environment protection

During the blended mobility for youth, the participants have been supported in the collection of ideas to undertake a concrete intervention in order to improve the environmental situation at local and European level - in view of the joint application for a Youth Participation Activity under the Erasmus+ Programme.

In that occasion the Dragon Dreaming method for project planning has been adopted, to support the youth in the definition of objectives and tasks/activities in the project.

After that, during the virtual meeting that followed the physical meeting in Palermo, the youth worked on the writing of the project application via zoom, working in small groups on common sessions of the application form (through zoom rooms) and being supervised by a youth worker.

Here the results of the first steps of the work the youth made in presence:
