Eat, Act, and Think Sustainably

We aim to raise awareness about crucial issues such as food waste, sustainability, and the importance of individual behavioral changes in combating the global climate crisis. Throughout the duration of the project, 42 participants from 5 countries will have the opportunity to enhance their environmental and sustainable skills while experiencing the joys of cooking workshops and sharing cultural dishes and values with one another. Together, we will take steps towards creating greener societies by disseminating the knowledge and skills gained during the program.
