came together to learn how to make this world more environmentally friendly through creativity and collaboration.
During this week, participants:
created an eco-mural in Ureki and painted eco-bags, because important topics can be not only discussed, but also created.
planted trees ourselves, visited the botanical garden and arboretum, and learned how local ecosystems need our attention.
organized a cleanup of the beach and the surrounding area.
presented their countries’ eco-initiatives, ranging from sorting practices to creative upcycling solutions, and developed their own innovative eco-products that could serve as a basis for new projects.
participated in workshops, games, and team tasks, where they learned to think outside the box, collaborate, and seek solutions to global problems through local actions.
engaged in intercultural dialogues, discovered the traditions of other countries, shared stories, and formed a true international community.
The Creative Recycle project is a perfect example of how small daily actions can scale up into big changes when we do them together.
The young people returned home with new knowledge, ideas, friends, and motivation to act and protect our planet together.
