🎯 AIM AND OBJECTIVES

The year 2023 was the hottest year ever, and it's only going to get worse. Extreme weather, rising sea levels, and environmental damage are getting worse and worse. But not everyone is affected the same way; some people and communities have it tougher than others.

The climate crisis affects us all! We need to act now to protect our planet and ensure a good life for everyone today and in the future and also to protect those who suffer from climate crisis more than others.

We are inviting young people to join this youth exchange to hear messages from the future, learn how to make a difference, and become part of the change!


  • Explore the future prospects of the climate crisis and its effects on people and the environment;

  • Understand personal, local and global links with the issue of climate crisis;

  • Explore our personal actions that “contribute” to the climate crisis and environmental destruction;

  • Discuss and understand how climate crisis affects different groups of people (age, gender, social/economic status, geographical area, etc.);

  • Work on individual and group actions that tackle the climate crisis.
