Green Three Seas Initiative for Youth
The project "Green Three Seas Initiative for Youth" is in line with the European Union's efforts to achieve a climate-neutral continent by 2050. Our project will focus on the social, youth and economic dimensions of the ecological transformation set by the European Green Deal. Together with our partners, we have identified, in the planning phase of the project, the two most important specific areas within the scope of the horizontal priority "environment and the fight against climate change"
As the result of this project is this Strategy about Green labor market, transition, Inclusive politics in climate, environmental education and more. You can download Czech version of the strategy below:
Do you study or work in the Moravian-Silesian Region? Or are you looking for a job? Help us fill out a questionnaire for a project that addresses the needs of youth to increase their employability. A youth strategy will be created.
The first chapter of the Strategy will be the topic of the Green Labor Market - this is an area of particular importance for young people who will have to navigate the reality undergoing transformation. As part of our project, we cater to young people who want to develop competences that will enable them to apply themselves in the labor market of the future.
We will create a script for a workshop that will help young people orientate themselves on the green labor market, develop their green competences and prepare them for life and work in the companies of the future.
Thank you very much for your opinions!
Objective
The aim of the project is to strengthen cooperation within the Three Seas Initiative for climate, environment, sustainable development and the European Green Deal. Building a strong partnership of organizations and institutions for the climate will contribute to increasing the Initiative's potential by increasing social capital within participating organizations,associate partners and third parties that will be affected by the project through dissemination events and a social campaign. The project also aims to increase the role of young people in the public debate by basing the main result of the project, the Green Three Seas Strategy for Young People, on the recommendations of young people. We will raise the competences of young people, thus increasing their employability in the changing reality of the Green Deal. The Preparation, implementation and popularization of the "Green Labor Market - Green Competences'' workshops, which will become an integral part of the local activities of our organizations, will implement our goal in the field of sectoral priorities:Promoting active citizenship, sense of initiative and entrepreneurship of young people, and Empowering young people for employment. Conducting such workshops in the areas of activity of our organizations - industrial areas, will have tangible effects in the form of supporting young people in making career path choices, by educating and raising environmental awareness and related knowledge about the effects of climate change, as well as the effects of activities aimed at their retention on the economy and the labor market.
Together with our partners, we have identified, in the planning phase of the project, the two most important specific areas within the scope of the horizontal priority "environment and the fight against climate change", which will form the axis of our project:
-Green Three Seas for Youth - Youth for Green Three Seas.
-Green Labour Market - green skills for youth.
The organizations involved in our project represent industrial regions that are most exposed to the potential effects of the unfairly carried out ecological transformation. Youth from these regions should be given a say in the direction of this transformation. Young people realize that this is the moment when they have the opportunity to create a place for their lives and work in the future. That is why we decided to establish a cooperative partnership that will bring together 10 youth work organizations based in the industrial centers of the Three Seas Initiative countries. The "Green Three Seas for Youth" project responds to the needs of youth, the needs of our organizations, local, national and international needs that we identified during the planning stage.
The youth voice is still not strong enough in the public debate. Our project is a way to strengthen it. On the basis of youth recommendations, we will develop a "Green Three Seas for Youth'' Strategy, which will be presented to decision-makers.The strategy will contribute to youth activization. We got in touch with the Youth Councils operating in the countries of our organizations, their members say clearly - the lack of expert strategic documents and analysis that are based on youth recommendations is one of the biggest obstacles to effective action and lobbying for youth demands.
Our project also addresses the needs of youth to increase their employability. The first chapter of our Strategy will be the chapter "Green Labour Market". - this is an area of particular importance for young people who will have to find their wayin the reality undergoing transformation. Within the framework of our project we meet the needs of young people who want to develop competencies that will allow them to find their place in the labour market of the future. We will create a workshop scenario that will help young people find their way in the green job market, develop their green competencies and prepare them to live and work in the societies of the future.
