TERMINÉ
The term “Ecophobia”, means a meaningless but well-conditioned reaction given against the natural forms. Also in Clinical Psychology this term means “the fear one has for his own home”. According to the data taken from European Commission database, in bigger cities, rising sound pollution increases the displeasure of the city residents. In cities with green spaces, pleasure rate is very high. This shows the importance of green spaces in city life.Why we want to run the project is to show nature’s effect on self-development and youth’s self-development, that nature influences the way people approach the difficulties in their daily life and that nature particularly influences the life quality of a person and their social life, also these effects matter for the society and it’s own peace; We also aim to realize that nature is a part of us, thus in city life, day by day getting away from the nature influences negatively by socially, psychologically and physically. Therefore we aim to realize and disseminate by both experiencing and discussing how positively living with nature and being engaged to it affects humanbeings. We aim to be one of the leading projects that change first the individual, then the society’s life by bringing nature into the life.Our project will take place in Ankara, 13-23 August 2016, with 36 participants/Leaders (5 participants/ 1 Group Leader per each country) and with the support of 1 psycologist/trainer, in total 37 people from 6 different countries (Turkey, Romania, Greece, Poland, Lithuania, Italy).
