Forest Youth European Project

Forest Youth: from improving Youth Wellbeing to Empowering Youth for Action (Facebook page) is a KA2 Erasmus+ project, funded by the EU, focusing on the intersection between at-risk youth and forests. It is developing a methodology for youth workers and a Forest Youth Platform. This will be followed by train-the-trainer sessions (at least 48 trainers will be trained) and later learning, empowerment and initiative-taking sessions will be led by these trainers to marginalised youth (at least 240 young people). At least 48 initiatives will be initiated by youth and supported by trainers and partner organisations. Active youth participation as one of the key aspects in the EU policy will be implemented in the Forest Youth project. Forest Youth Platform will serve for connecting and networking of community with similar goals and activities.
