Think Green is an Eramsus + European Voluntary Service project (Key action 1), which will take place in Xylokastro- Evrostinis (Greece) from September 2nd to October 28th 2016 .It is a "short term EVS" which involves two young volunteers with fewer opportunities, currently not engaged in any Education programme, Employment or Training (NEETs). In this way Comitato d'Intesa and the project partner are trying to give a concrete answer to a social need, creating an opportunity for international mobility for two young people, resident in the Province of Belluno, which are currently experiencing a prolonged withdrawal from the labor market and from the training system with consequent inclusion, learning and training problems.The project is led by some specific objectives. Think green in fact aims to:- Create a space for dialogue and intercultural learning among young people with fewer opportunities, by promoting the acquisition of a "European citizenship";- Promote volunteering as an expression of active citizenship, solidarity and social inclusion;- Build a common vision of European voluntary, based on shared values;- Experiment innovative and participatory processes, based on non-formal and informal learning methodologies;- Promote sustainable lifestyles and virtuous paths of environmental protection and restoration of the landscape;- Use the communication and multimedia language, as experimental methods of peer education;- Recognize and certify the level of attitudes and skills acquired by young people during the mobility experience;- Establish a network of transnational partnership, starting point for future collaborations.Volunteers will be employed in protection and land-use activities, taking care of the forest and coastal environment within the Municipality of Xylokastro- Evrostinis, in close contact with the local community, and they will collaborate with some peers, Greek volunteers within the organization, supporting them in their daily work, working together and learning the values of tolerance, equality and acceptance. The purpose is to provide to EVS volunteers and local volunteers not only an environmental education project, but also a path of intercultural education, promoting social integration and an active participation.The two EVS volunteers, through the daily activities, will live an educational and training experience linked to sustainability: they will acquire a critical consciousness about a responsible management of the environment and landscape, living a direct experience close with the local community. Through informal and non-formal learning methodologies volunteers will develop a sense of responsibility and the respect for the environment. Moreover, volunteers will acquire a more personal ethics, acquiring the values of sustainability and interculturality tested during the mobility experience.The partnership network ensures a balance of expertise: the Greek partner (hosting organization) has been selected on the basis of interrelated skills, reliability, experience and contribution during all the phases of the project. Comitato d'Intesa and the project partner have documented experience in the field of non-formal learning, management of youth groups and promotion of intercultural dialogue, as well as adequate project management skills, preconditions for a network of quality.The project is aimed by obtaining a direct impact on EVS participants, Greek volunteers, mentors, partner organizations, as well as on the local community. The direct result of the project will be the multimedia product made after the experience, which will guarantee an optimal visibility thanks to the support that will be carried out by all the partner organizations and by the network of local actors, through their communication channels (website internet, Facebook page, Youtube channels). The video production, in particular, will have a prominent impact and benefit in the long period: shared and promoted at all levels, it will become an instrument of media education, enhancing the transmission of the European common values of solidarity and active citizenship, and promoting a horizontal communication between peers.The mobility experience will also be an opportunity to discuss common projects, laying the basis for future synergies and collaborations, with long-term benefits for each partner association.
