Project Summary
Fight against Climate Change is an Erasmus+ project that aims to increase the awareness of young people on combating climate change and to enable them to take an active role in the struggle. The goal is to provide a comprehensive training on the impacts of climate change, crisis management and volunteering. Through this training, young people will gain the necessary knowledge and skills to understand the social impacts of natural disasters caused by climate change and learn how to act on such issues.
SEE Austria contributed to the project through running discussions on how to prepare for climate disasters and how to tackle the hard situation after the climate crisis happens. The discussion supported organizations to better understand the impact of volunteering and helped them to recognize effective ways to develop the entrepreneurial skills of young people to find innovative solutions to environmental problems.
