CIRCULAR ECONOMY FOR YOUTH (CEYOU) Since 2020, Y-E-N is partnering with Pontydysgu, an organisation from the United Kingdom, and 4 other NGOs in a KA2 on Circular Economy. One of the results of this partnership will be a toolkit on “How to educate young people about circular economy”. It is supported by Erasmus+ programme of the European Union. Although the partners were able to gather in Athens for a first transnational meeting between the 12th and 15th of January, the project had to adapt in light of the rise of the global pandemic, and replace the gatherings by online meetings. Online calls happened at 6 separate occasions for regular updates, and an online transnational meeting was organised on the 5th and 6th of October.
PARTNERSHIP ACTIVITIES
In the frame of CEYOU, Y-E-N worked at local level and with local partners: we got in contact and worked with Patchworkers, a local organisation working in the field of ethical clothing and social entrepreneurship, and we implemented 2 web conferences in French, together with 3 other local organisations: one on sustainable and circular fashion, and the other on eco-anxiety.
