If youth awareness on climate change and related civic conduct by applying the EU-endorsed content and approach intended for school-age students. The toolkit is available from a European Commission web site dedicated to the topic (http://ec.europa.eu/environment/climat/campaign/index_en.htm).

The materials will be translated into Serbian language to be directly usable by the Serbian students from the Project web site. Ten secondary schools will be selected for participation in the project: 5 in Kyustendil District and 5 in Jablanitsa District. One teacher from each school will be identified to act as a “contact point”. They will serve as a link between the project partners and the students and will perform training and communication functions. A total of 200 students will be recruited – 20 from each school, to be trained as “school green ambassadors”. They will disseminate the knowledge they have acquired among their schoolmates, relatives and friends. Twenty individuals, including environmentalists, civic activists, public figures and representatives of the Roma minority, will be recruited as “regional green ambassadors” to spread the EU-endorsed messages on a regional level. They will set up a network for exchange of information and experience and for best practice dissemination. Joint cross-border awareness campaigns will be carried out. Two innovative electronic teaching aids will be developed and uploaded on the project web site: an e-learning tool and a knowledge-testing platform. A green camp with an advanced training workshop, a closing round table and an exit survey will be held.
