AIM OF THE PROJECT

Environmental issues transcend borders and languages, impacting every individual regardless of their geographical location. The urgent need to address climate change and pollution has never been more apparent, especially considering the profound impact on future generations.

By fostering awareness, building practical skills, and encouraging a positive shift in attitudes, the project envisions a future where youth actively contribute to creating a sustainable and eco-friendly world. Through collaboration and education, the project seeks to inspire a generation committed to environmental activism and responsible stewardship of the planet.
