The project "Back to the Nature" is organized by the informal non-profit group b- free . In this youth exchange young people from five different countries (Germany , Poland, Great Britain, Estonia and Romania) will try to lo live together without electricity in an old quarry in the middle of a large forest along with each other . "Back to the Nature" has the ambition to form these five groups of different nationalities to one group and to give the European thoughts about peace and tolerance to the participants. During the project the young people will actively deal with issues such as sustainability, environmental awareness and recycling and thus rethink their own consumer behaviour. At the beginning of the project the participants are shown tactics and methods for environmentally and responsible use of nature. It is planned that the participants learn how to use their natural actively perceive and appreciate, so they should make skills like the responsible behaviour with fire in the nature, to build a natural cooking area and the planning and construction of natural beds. At the end of the week the participants are using their newly recruited skills to build a common structure from natural resources , which will be presented to the local citizens , the local press and also to children 's and youth organizations from the region. This is intended to stimulate a discussion about the project-specific issues. The entire project should be documented. After the project this documentation will be presented countries which are participating and will be published in the Internet to promote the message behind this project. During the entire project period, the group will be accompanied by three coaches and professional outdoor adventure educators.
