The main aim of the project “Be sustainable, don’t WASTE your future” was to equip youth workers, young leaders and stakeholders with skills, knowledge and competencies in the field of environmental protection, sustainable growth, smart use of resource etc. Through the program of the training course we created youth leaders who will be able to successfully implement and use the skills and knowledge learned, during their everyday work with young people. They will be able to organize eco-oriented youth projects, lead seminars, trainings, conferences on the topic and use the methods and tools of non-formal education during their work with young people on the topics of environmental friendly sustainable growth.
