Description
Solidarity Track organized a training course which brought together young leaders and young people’s educators coming form 13 European countries, including countries of the Eastern Europe and the region of Caucasus. The seminar was hold in Lefkas island and lasted 10 days, the purpose being for the participants to exchange views, experiences and “good practices” and to develop skills & competences relative to the young people’s education in the sustainable development. In the course of the seminar we organized a workshop, during which the participants created some figurines using the “origami” technique. These figurines showed concretely various ideas about linking entrepreneurship and sustainable development. At the end of the seminar the participants organized an exhibition for local citizens where they discussed about their sustainable entrepreneurial ideas.

Parallel to this, the participants created a practical pedagogical tool concerning the education of young people in the sustainable development. This tool helped the participants to put appealing pedagogical activities to practice, enabling thus the development of the entrepreneurial spirit among the young people of their communities. This way we hope to manage both to obtain positive effects and long-term influence in their attitudes and habits and to install into the young people the knowledge of becoming a responsible businessman throughout their life.
