Green Fingers – Supporting ESC organisations to address the Sustainability priority.
Training Course
15-18 November 2022 | Dublin, Ireland
To support organisations active in the European Solidarity Corps to address the Sustainability priority.
The European Solidarity Corps can make a meaningful contribution to the Commission’s commitment to tackling climate and environmental-related challenges. To contribute to the European Green Deal, the Programme aims at integrating green practices into all projects and activities as well as promoting environmentally sustainable and responsible behaviour among participants and participating organisations.
Organisations and participants should thus have an environmental-friendly approach when designing and implementing their activities. Activities contributing to other existing EU initiatives in the area of environmental sustainability (e.g. the New European Bauhaus) are highly encouraged.
The Programme also supports projects and activities addressing the societal challenges related to environmental protection, sustainability and climate goals. Such projects can tackle a variety of issues, aiming for example at protecting, conserving and enhancing the natural capital or raising awareness about environmental sustainability and mechanisms to address climate anxiety and nurture active hope.
Aim: To support organisations active in the European Solidarity Corps to address the Sustainability priority.
