"""Start from where young people are"" is the youth worker's mantra, and what better place to start than by getting involved in action for the environment? Protecting the environment is important for 93% of European youths, 86,5% of them agree that they can play a role in protecting the environment but 68% of them also feel that citizens themselves are not doing enough to protect the environment - Eurobarometer ( 2017). Green youth's promoters wants to meet this will of active participation expressed by young people providing the youth organizations and their youth workers with needed background of knowledge, ability and skills that make them able to effectively promote and support young people's commitment in the environment protection field. This project represent a common path for the partner organizations where to start from the strong pillars of their previous experience till reaching innovation by the transfer of those experiences from their local context to the partners' one, collecting a fan of best practices created by and for youth workers able to improve the youth services in all the needed steps to support the young people desire of actively participate to the protection of their environment - from visibility and engagement of young people, to tools and methods to promote learning and awareness on environmental issues, techniques to work with young people, types and methods for effective green youth actions to be implemented in the natural environment and in the cities, till how to involve stakeholders and policy makers in those actions, how to make green youth work inclusive and how to support young people entrepreneurship, creating an unique model validated at European level and able to lead to European joint actions, where young people could go beyond their local area to start to think green at an European level. The project will have a duration of 2 years (June 2019 - May 2021); the main project activities will be 4 short-term joint staff training events, each partner organization will manage one of them, for 3 youth workers and/or volunteers from each partner organization (each staff training event will be followed by a phase of local activities for the application and experimentation of the learning outcomes in the partner organizations): they will drive the process of exchange of best practices among the partners, following a progressive path that will start from a theoretical preparation on environmental issues and actions of natural environment protection, passing through a deepening on team building and facilitation to inclusive volunteering, urban green actions and stakeholders' involvement. The partners collaboration will reach its climax with a blended mobility that will involve 5 young participants and an accompanying person per partner and will be held in Palermo with the aim to built a complete and effective non formal learning path on environment protection with a special focus on youth social entrepreneurship about in the green sector. The implementation of the project will be based on a collaborative approach among the partners so each one of them will be responsible of specific actions in order to reach the foreseen results for each project activity.
