Our objectives:
- Strengthen the capacities of youth educators, NGO staff and volunteers to work with young people with fewer opportunities (particularly with migrant background) in non-formal education around the climate crisis
- Develop emotional literacy in education through storytelling and other art-based learning approaches
- Promote active civil participation of young people with fewer opportunities (particularly with migrant background) through real life, community-based experiences
- Building climate justice into the structures of NGOs and associations working in climate justice and global citizenship education
About Green Diversity
With our project we are establishing new ways of storytelling to give young people the opportunity to get involved in climate justice activism and to learn from each other. We would like to give young people globally a stage to share their stories and their work towards a just society.
Through our project, we change the narrative of the "victims of the climate catastrophe" towards self-effective climate activists who work for climate protection and social justice in their region and globally.
At the end of the 2-year project journey, this supports an Interactive Map with inspiring stories; a Storytelling Toolkit for people who work with young people and want to get them excited about climate protection; as well as a Climate Justice Policy Box, with ideas and instructions for sustainable work in organizations towards more climate justice.
The project is carried out jointly with 5 organizations:
- Neo Sapiens (Spain) - www.neo-sapiens.com
- LVIA - Lay Volunteers International Association (Italy) - lvia.it
- SCI - Service Civil International (Germany) - www.sci-d.de
- KVT - Kansainvälinen Vapaaehtoistyö Ry (Finland) - www.kvtfinland.org
- Jugend Eine Welt (Austria) - www.jugendeinewelt.at
