Abstract: The project “Engage, connect and empower youth for a sustainable green future” is focused on two European Youth Goals: quality learning
and sustainable green Europe. It aims at implementing a creative strategy in terms of capacity building for the new generation actually
facing the problems of tomorrow related to environment degradation, climate change, and sustainability issues. The target group of the
project is youth trainers/workers, organisations, young activists in Albania, local/national authorities, and citizens of Albania and Europe.
The project will focus in bringing the EU practices and translate them into tangible tools for youth in Western Balkan in order to fast forward
the green transition. The core of the project, capacity building, will be achieved through a critical number of activities, such as ToT, Youth
exchanges, toolkits and manuals. These activities will spill over throughout non-formal learning providers benefitting staff, youth, and key
stakeholders in the process. Overall, with this project Build Green Group will promote and improve capacity building for youth in important
areas such as climate change awareness, environment digitalization, environmental justice, innovation & research, contribution to SDGs,
and creation of fruitful partnerships. The topic addressed and activities designed to make the project have a local, national, and EU impact,
specifically in bringing EU practices in WB.
