About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The volunteers will mainly implement ecological awareness workshops in the high schools in Romania. In Romania, the workshops already reached over 1500 students. In October 2023, Eco Echo received SALTO Awards as the most impactful youth project in the category “Environment & Fight Against Climate Change” Our workshops are based on non-formal education. Non-formal education refers to any education received outside of traditional educational institutions. Therefore, everything we learn outside the classroom and school context is non-formal learning. Indeed, our aim is to help the students to open their minds by themselves. Most of the activities proposed involve the students discovering problems related to ecology and searching for solutions. All of our workshops start with an ice-breaker to get the students in a state of mind open to non-formal education. All workshops are based on non-formal education.

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
