Green Skills 4 You(th) is a ESC team volunteering project that will take place in the picturesque village of Agros, Cyprus. This initiative brings together 13 young volunteers from across the EU to promote environmental sustainability through the principles of reduce, reuse, recycle, and recover.

Wie zoeken we?
We are seeking open-minded, nature-loving individuals who are excited to explore Cyprus and contribute meaningfully to the local community. Ideal participants are those who demonstrate high motivation, possess at least a basic level of English, and have a genuine passion for the environment. Volunteers should be eager to learn and grow, developing new skills and competencies that they can later share with others. A proactive attitude is essential, as participants will be involved in a variety of planned activities, workshops, and community engagements. Above all, we welcome young people who aspire to be active citizens, ready to make a positive impact both locally and beyond—regardless of their background.
