At the same time, they feel powerless to change something, because even their parents often do not think in this direction.<\/p>\n<p>Through this project, we expect to raise public awareness much more, because it is in the interest of all of us to take care of the environment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The main objectives of the project are:<br \/>\n<\/strong>&#8211; Raising their desire to combat environmental pollution.<br \/>\n&#8211; Raising awareness of the people about ways to reduce the use of water and plastic in our daily lives.<br \/>\n&#8211; Raising awareness of the people about the processes running at a wastewater treatment plant.<br \/>\n&#8211; Raise awareness of the processes happening in a waste disposal depot.<br \/>\n&#8211; Creating a brochure that can be used as an information guide that will provide practical examples of reducing the use of water and plastic in our daily lives.<br \/>\n&#8211; Raising their knowledge of the Erasmus + program and how they can benefit from it in their future personal and professional development.<br \/>\n&#8211; Increasing their knowledge in the field of project idea development.<br \/>\n&#8211; Promote their active citizenship.<\/p>\n<p>This project is the first part of a long-lasting and extensive information campaign. The next steps will be focusing on the use of paper, metal and glass, then the various renewable sources of electricity, and we plan to close the training cycle with living gardens and permaculture.<\/p>\n<p>We decided to start with this project because the majority of young people think that it is quite a serious problem, a solution that can be found very easily and they think that the results can be seen and reported more easily.<\/p>\n<p>The main method used will be &#8222;learning by doing&#8220;. The ways of presenting and teaching will be in different ways stimulating the different ways of learning &#8211; through writing, reading, music and so on.<\/p>\n<p>They are based on the Cone of Experience (a model for explaining how audio-visual methods contribute to learning invented by American education expert Edgar Dale).<\/p>\n<p>The following activities will be organized according to the methods used for them:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Energizers and Icebreakers<\/strong>. Each day, for 10-15 minutes before each session, participants will optionally present a game. Their aim is to raise the mood and energy level of the participants, to awaken and encourage them. The games are fun and easy, testing their concentration, reflexes speed, rational and fast thinking, etc.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Teambuilding games (including logic games and decision-making games).<\/strong> The purpose of these games is to provoke the teamwork of the participants and thus to turn the participants from &#8222;strangers to each other&#8220; into teammates to support and help each other. Logic games are intended to provoke them to think critically and to seek solutions to a problem, through discussions and compromises.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Presentations and discussions<\/strong>. Their purpose is to encourage young people to express and defend their opinions, as well as to improve their oratorical and organizational skills. Also encourage them to think critically and ask questions in front of many people when something is not clear to them. But the most important aspect is the public speaking because many people are worried about it and don&#8217;t ask questions and present and defend their own opinions. They will be implemented in a formal and informal way. Formal will be the official presentation of statistics, information on a certain problem, visits to both facilities, etc. And the informal ones, through theater, drama, music, etc.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Creative activities<\/strong>. When creating the brochure and daily publications to disseminate the results, participants will need to include their creative and inventive thinking in these activities. The purpose of these activities is to better prepare them for future initiatives and events that they themselves will implement. In addition, the quality of the final product depends to a large extent on these activities and their dedication to produce a great document.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><strong>Additional information:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Eligible participants per country: <\/strong>4 young motivated people from Bulgaria, Spain, Serbia, Romania, Poland, Latvia, Lithuania and Cyprus at the age of 13-24 and 1 group leader with no age limit, but 18+<br \/>\n<strong>Duration: <\/strong>8 days + 2 more for the travelling<br \/>\n<strong>Working language: <\/strong>English.<br \/>\n<strong>Daily meals<\/strong>: Food will be delivered.
