About the project

ESC: Eco Festival Thessaloniki

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

This activity engages youngsters with their involvement in eco festival that we organize in Thessaloniki. The participants will have the opportunity to see in practice many alternative solutions that are more friendly to the environment and learn how to benefit from it. There are many activities that participants can have active participation as debates, public speeches, and workshops that can express themselves and their ideas. Also, there are many other activities that they can see and watch and they can learn methods and tools for a sustainable environment. All this knowledge and experience via interactive workshops is given to them for free as we share among us all information and like that the benefits are for all of us.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Participants will be accommodated in fully furnished shared flats. They will receive 150 euros per month for food, as well as a bike for daily transportation. Green travel included.

🎒 Leisure activities

The Eco Festival supports activities that deal with the environment and sustainable development. We support and organize many different activities and we collaborate also with many innovative companies that we promote the use of their products and devices. One of this company is the homebiogas company that creat devices that recycle the organic waste into natural gas and the manure too from animals and humans too. They have also the homebiogas toilet that is a really innovative device. Participants will learn how to use these devices and the benefits of the use of them.

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).
