The project Making SOAP: Sustainable Options for Active People is a training course on exploring sustainable approaches to work, life and education starting from the local resources. The aim is to foster the social change towards a more fair and sustainable world, where respect for all the beings and solidarity are in the centre of any relation. We start from the concern about the current rhythms of life and consumption and agree with the idea that this kind of society invest more in material things than in people needs. Our proposal is to start thinking about what if we change paradigm and bet for simple living as an alternative for personal and social development instead of keep feeding the system as it is now. We do believe the power of small actions, and the need of promoting entrepreneurial spirit among young people, as the main stakeholder in the future legacy. Finally, the only way we know to make the previous come true is through education, so this is a chance to come, learn and share! We are planning to provide a training course to explore the idea of decreasing the environmental costs of our activities and growing in social relations, mutual learning and happiness. The place to develop it is Medinaceli (Soria), a small village in central Spain placed 150km far from Madrid. It's a natural and cultural priviledge place where the landscape will be our ally to get inspired. During one week ( 28th September - 5th October), and using non formal education methods based on community building and open air activities we will prepare the arena for a rich exchange of ideas, practises and living examples of alternative approaches to work, life and education. It will be, more than anything else, an experiential learning project, where participants will be able to live in a community based group, using local resources and lightweight lifestyles. Some of the activities planned are: walking in the nature, sustainability workshops, bioclimatic construction workshops, community learning and council, among others. The target group includes 28 participants among Youth workers, Trainers, Youth leaders, Youth Policy Makers, Volunteers, anybody who is interested in the topic and find it useful for personal and professional development. With this project we aim to raise awareness on some of the main aspects of the continuing changing society, give tools to the participants to self develop their sense of initiative, and enhance the networking process. The potential benefits of this action will rely on the capacity of the paticipants to put in practise and multiply the contents of the course once back home, and also the power of networking between the organizatoins envolved.
