The project aims to encourage youth to act, after having raised awareness among them on Climate Change and Migration, starting from the direct effects that these two phenomena have on their territories. Youth will be trained by experts on specific issues relating to Climate Change and Migration and on communication methodologies, in order to increase their capability to inform and influence the broader community. They will also have the possibility to listen to the direct voices of people who have been touched by the negative implication of Migration and Climate Change in Italy and in Kenya. The project is also concerned in fostering the collaboration between Local Authorities and young people encouraging the active participation of communities. To this regard, the Target Group will challenge themselves during a Hackathon aimed at finding local and bottom-up ways to sensitize and engage the larger community towards the two themes.
The project is coordinated by Amici del Mondo – World Friends Onlus
