Live Sustainably Training Course

Training Course

9-17 August 2022 | Máriahalom, Hungary

“Live sustainably” is a training course for youth workers, trainers and facilitators with an interest in promoting and facilitating sustainable living practices in the youth they work with.

The aim of the training is to provide the knowledge, attitudes and skills participants need in order to effectively encourage and facilitate lifestyle changes towards environmental sustainability with young people they work with.

This will be done in an experiential and participatory way, utilising the same tools that the participants can afterwards put in practice in their work with young people. We will dig deeper and explore the root causes of the unsustainable behaviour patterns that most young people have, and we will explore different ways in which we can change this rationale in order to create sustainable lifestyle changes which don’t compromise the survival of future generations.

The activities will be based on non formal education methodologies and will focus on:

- provide participants possibility to understand more the current environmental situation locally and globally and improve their competences (knowledge, attitudes and abilities) to be able to choose more respectful life with the planetary boundaries and to facilitate effectively a change of habits towards sustainability among the young people they work with;

- equip youth workers with methods and practices to be able to facilitate group processes with young people on sustainable related issues

- encourage critical thinking to learn to unmask frequent phenomena such as “green washing” (or fake sustainability), fake perceptions of certain commodities as “cheap”, etc.

- share resources and tools to inform and raise awareness of young people about the importance of caring for the environment, inspire and motivate them to modify their lifestyle towards more sustainable ones;

- join in an international group of youth workers interested in promoting sustainability among the youth they work with.

With this project we want to contribute to more young people knowing, practising and promoting environmental sustainability, and this way improve the capacity of our planet to satisfy the needs of the future generations.

We are looking for applicants between 20 and 40 years old who have connection working youngsters or young adults.
