The main goal has been to raise awareness and provide the knowledge and skills necessary to act in environmental protection to various populations, raising their awareness about various environmental issues and through the teamwork of an international consortium. Specifically, we aimed to establish a cooperation network by exchanging effective practices in project management and environmental conservation. We shared this knowledge with teachers, youth workers, and other interested groups. Additionally, we raised awareness among young people in Romania, Spain, and Turkey about environmental conservation. In quantitative terms, our objectives included: - Engaging at least 150 young people. Thanks to the project, they are now more aware of environmental conservation. - Properly training at least 48 staff members in environmental education, increasing their awareness of existing issues. - Engaging at least 30 local organizations and more than 45 stakeholders. - Raising awareness among at least 1,000 people in the project's scope about environmental issues and how they can contribute to solving them.

We have carried out the following activities, with no changes in relation to the application form: A1. Management and dissemination: A1.1 An initial in-person meeting and online meetings for progress tracking and review. A1.2 Development of the implementation plan and partnership agreement. A1.3 Development of the dissemination plan and reporting tools and methods. A1.4 A multiplier event in each country. A1.5 Ongoing management and dissemination throughout the project. A2. Promoting Environmental Responsibility Among Teachers and Youth Workers: A2.2 Training for youth workers in Granada, Spain, on teaching skills, training, and raising awareness of environmental issues among young people. A2.3 Local dissemination activity, one in each country. A2.4 Creation of an educational guide on teaching and training methods and tools for environmental topics. A3. Youth for Environmental Action and Help (YEAH): A3.1 A local workshop in each partner country following the training held in Granada. A3.2 Creation of a documentary on environmental education. A3.3 A compost garden in Turkey and a seasonal produce garden in Spain.

The concrete results and other achievements of our project are: - Intercultural training in environmental education for 18 teachers and youth workers. - Three knowledge exchange sessions, one per country, with at least 30 participants learning about the activities carried out in the Granada training. - Three local workshops, training at least 60 students across the three participating countries. - Three local dissemination events with at least 45 participants in each country. - Creation of an educational guide featuring 15 activities on environmental topics. - Production of a documentary on the project’s results and environmental awareness. - Creation of an eco-compost garden at the school in Turkey and a garden at Celei. - Formation of a network of staff, partners, and youth in environmental protection. Additionally, a website has been created that includes descriptions, photos, and results of all the activities carried out. This link has been shared on the results platform.
