About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Unknown region of Croatia, called Lika, is extremely rich in biodiversity and geodiversity, which provides great educational opportunities, for the volunteers and the local community. Goal of this project is to present the challenges of modern life, impact of this way of life on our ecosystems, causes and consequences of climate change and to show the power and the role of individuals and community, through educating about responsible behavior, recycling, thrift (saving and reducing), sustainable development and sustainable use of resources. The aim is to empower the local community (especially kids and youth) and participants in this project for active participation in recognizing and dealing with the environmental problems, and to diseminate the results in their own communities. Think globally, act locally!

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).
