2020 Changemakers

Welcome to Changemakers 2020! We are a group of joyful, motivated youngsters who want to put our weight into fighting climate change. Through the European Solidarity Corps we created a project about the environment, media and activism. We aim to stimulate awareness and to confront ourselves with our impact on the environment. By learning from each other on an international level, we will be able to actively make a difference. After the project we will spread our message to a wider audience.

At the end you can leave our project, but your mindset will always stay!

We aim for our project to have a positive impact on multiple levels and leave us and the youngsters from our partner organisation feeling enriched in various areas.

- Get together and create hands on opportunities for engagement in solidarity activities affecting positive societal change.
- Giving ourselves and each other the opportunity to improve skills and competences for personal, educational, social, civic, cultural and professional development: we will work on working in international teams, communicating in a foreign language and in a different context, digital skills, management of a project etc.
- Stimulating awareness and confronting ourselves with the positive and negative impact of our behavior on the environment.

For the organisations involved:
- To strengthen each organisation and create a long-term impact on the daily operation
- Learning to think in a different way and to be open for other cultures and languages.

Local, national and international impact:
- Expand the project to a larger public
- Stimulating awareness and confronting our viewers with the positive and negative impact of our behavior on the environment.

We submitted this project last year and already received the grant. Due to the corona pandemic we are searching for a partner who is willing to host, nearer to the home of our youngsters. It's important the location can be reached by means of public transport (bus and train).
Are you enthusiastic about hosting? Great! Get in touch!
