YOUth - ABLE to live sustainABLE!
Start date: Feb 1, 2014,

Youth Exchange wll gather 35 young people from Armenia, Georgia, Moldova, Italy, Spain, Czech Republic and Turkey in order to share opinions about the concept of Sustainable Development and take responsibly to actively participate in shaping a sustainable world. In other words, the youth exchange will be about empowering young people to foster sustainable development in their communities as well as discussing and addressing main environmental challenges on local and the global levels. The youth exchange will take place in Tsakhkadzor, Armenia and will last 10 days. The main objectives of the youth exchange are:- to empower motivated young people to become active in their civil society to foster sustainable development,- to provide the participants with basic knowledge about sustainable development,- to reflect on own attitudes and actions of participants regarding sustainability,- to share ideas and opinions about the present and future environmental challeneges,- to stimulate collaboration among participants from EU and non-EU partner countries in the field of Sustainable Development. During the exchange young people will have a unique opportunity to discuss the idea of sustainable development and learn about the interaction between the four dimensions of Sustainable Development - environment, society, culture and economy as well as intergenerational and global fairness. Furthermore questions on the local and the global level would be addressed. In order to make the content of the exchange more interesting for participants, chosen topics within the theme of Sustainable Development will be connected to their everyday life. Thus they will be able to bring in their own experiences and implement what they have learned later on.The idea of the exchange is not only to give knowledge, but competences to act. Hence, mainly non-formal learning methods will be applied, such as workshops, discussions, group works, outdoor activities, city game, field visits, etc.
