EU-WISE Young Citizens-Consumers

EU-WISE Young Citizens-Consumers (EWYCC) aims to combine generic youth empowerment activities with sustainable development tools and strategies in order to empower young people as agents of change. The project is grounded on the enormous potential for young people to develop skills to create alternative ways of ensuring inclusive, resilient, and sustainable societies. Through a bottom-up approach, it fosters the role of young people as “agents” and “catalysts” for change by, building their capacity to promote sustainable lifestyles and attitudes in their communities (e.g. trainings, political support, dialogue opportunities, and education and awareness raising).
