Description
This activity will raise awareness among young people (volunteers) and local communities about nature and the environment and inspire others to rethink their attitude towards nature. This activity will address habitat management, reinforce respect for the environment, provide more knowledge about nature and key ideas related to recycling and nature preservation, provide them with important personal and professional skills, such as entrepreneurship, organisational competences, environmental knowledge and communication skills. People will participate in volunteering activities to discover and protect nature, coming together for common purposes. Through small gestures and by promoting the European Green Deal in the local community, we can help reshape the way people interact with the environment. Coastal clean-up activities are planned, as well as artistic rehabilitation (painting of trees) of forests burnt by fires and cleaning and signposting of Green Path
