The project is a cultural exchange between young people aged 13-22 from Germany and Bulgaria. The main topics of the exchange are motivation for environmental education, protection of the environment and nature conservation, motivation for a healthy lifestyle and physical activities. Both groups are expected to consist of 20 members and two group leaders per each group. The project activities will take place from 02.08 to 11.08.2016 in Bulgaria. The aim of the project is within 10 days to provide opportunities for young people from both countries to actively participate in various activities and to discuss in terms of the ever-growing need of active and responsible attitude towards the environment and personal responsibility for our own health and hence the problem of climate change and its impact on the environment and on the lives and health of people in general. The natural conditions in the foothills of the mountains, combined with the favorable impact of the summer sea and the mouth of one of our biggest rivers Kamchia and the wonderful conditions of the Sanatorno – health complex “Kamchia” which will hold the main part of the exchange, will lead towards better communication between us young people. Through our participation in creative eco-activities and various forms of physical and outdoor activities will initiate the construction of a conscious strategy for a healthy lifestyle, multicultural understanding and mutual acceptance. The variety of activities, that are included in the program, also include discussions on topics such as “What is ecology and the contribution of young people for environmental protection”, “Flora and fauna. Biodiversity in the region”, “Give first aid – save a life”, “To the nature with respect – responsibility to ourselves”, “What we have seen from the biodiversity of the area and how to preserve it for future generations”, “Sport – a means of bringing young people together”, “Motivational psycho training for healthy eating”, “Stamina, speed, improve attention and thinking of young people through active sports”. There are scheduled multicultural events such as organized dinners with traditional Bulgarian dishes, visit to an authentic Bulgarian restaurant and a tourist walk around the historical and modern attractions in the area around the complex. We have planned free time for enjoying the warm rays of the flattering Bulgarian sun, boating on the river Kamchia located in the nature reserve “Kamchia”, use of all facilities of the spa complex, one movie night and several discos with dancing and fun games. All these activities will help to develop key skills in us young people like teamwork, healthy and socially responsible behavior, cultural understanding of the environment, etc. Also, they will encourage and motivate us to efficiently manage our time, prevent our mental health from negative addictions, as well as generating fresh ideas for a healthy and enjoyable way of spending leisure time. By shaping the model of combining natural lifestyle with exercise, outdoor activities and communication without the use of technologies will make us – the generation of virtual communication, to rediscover the values of direct communication and the world of outdoor adventures with boys and girls from different countries. We will pay attention to nutrition as to prevent against modern diseases and obesity. The project will offer various methods of informal education – interactive role playing, discussions, outdoor activities, opportunities for interaction between the participants and sharing ideas, these methods aim to avoid passive listening and to enhance the ability of participants to contribute their knowledge and skills for the implementation of activities. Thus transforming the traditional roles of 'experts' (transformation of learning by extracting knowledge to acquisition of opportunities); opportunities for independent analysis, including reflecting on the acquired during the activities competencies (i.e. our own learning outcomes) and guarantees that we, the young people will have an impact on decisions related to the project, and we will not be just ordinary participants to the pre-made plan.
