The project connects its work directly to the UN 2030 Agenda and the EU Green Deal 2050 strategy, combining environmental education with language, digital and teamwork skills. It was coordinated by Intégration Européenne dans le Domaine de la Jeunesse, du Volontariat et de la Citoyenneté Européenne Active (France), with partners in Türkiye, Romania and Czechia.
