Project Description |
Three years ago, as it celebrated its 25th anniversary, Youth and Environment Europe (YEE) identified the need to carefully investigate the impact of its own activities on the environment. YEE is not involved in harmful production or activities and its members are dedicated to environmental protection, conservation and sustainable development, but we observed that our international projects have a serious impact on the environment, due to all the papers printed, food eaten, energy used and plane flights taken. We therefore wanted to get a clear view of how we perform our activities and how we could improve them so as to lessen their negative environmental impact. From the beginning we were devoted to spreading the knowledge that we ourselves gained to our local community informing organisations, companies and authorities about environmental best practices and environmental management.
The project involved 18 participants from four countries and lasted from August 2010 to April 2011. It consisted of three stages: a training course, a period for local action and an evaluation meeting.
