Voluntourism- Use tourism to educate
Climate change remains as critical as ever, and the deficiency in empirical education is equally pressing. The battle against climate change and the protection of the environment are top priorities for the European Union. The program aims to foster awareness across all sectors regarding the green transition and the challenges posed by environmental and climate change. The project is geared towards enhancing competencies in sustainability by developing green strategies and methodologies. Additionally, it aims to create future-oriented curricula that better cater to the needs of individuals.More specifically, using tourism and voluntarism, participants connect with places that have suffered from climate change and disasters, allowing them to experience the emergence of climate change and the necessity for education. Online training, hands-on sessions, travel sessions, and volunteer training are key elements to create environmental awareness among individuals. Participants will be introduced to locations affected by climate change and disasters, fostering a firsthand understanding of the impact. The program utilizes tourism and voluntarism as educational tools to highlight the urgency and importance of climate change education. By combining online training, hands-on experiences, travel sessions, and voluntarism, the program provides a multifaceted approach to creating environmental awareness among individuals. A key element of the project is that during the training, mentors will be from other countries, and participants will visit other affected areas to exchange common ideas in action.
