UxGE Project Events Inspire Students to Tackle Environmental Challenges

On September 25, 2024, CARDET hosted a dynamic and educational event at Latsia High School as part of the “United for a Green Europe” (UxGE) project, under the Erasmus+ European Youth Together Programme. This event aimed to engage students with the goals of the UxGE project, which focuses on promoting sustainability and environmental awareness across Europe.

During the session, students were introduced to the project’s first major milestone—the “United for a Green Europe” Online Training Course. They were encouraged to explore the course and use its resources to deepen their understanding of pressing environmental issues. A lively “World Café” activity followed, where students discussed critical topics such as extreme weather events, plastic pollution, and overconsumption. Through interactive group discussions, they exchanged ideas about the causes and effects of these global challenges and brainstormed potential solutions. The activity fostered a sense of environmental responsibility and active citizenship, inspiring students to contribute to a more sustainable Europe.

On September 27, CARDET held a second event at Agios Antonios High School in Limassol, where students explored various modules of the Online Training Course, with a special focus on leadership. A fun Kahoot quiz added an interactive element, stimulating engagement and collaboration among the participants.

These two events marked important milestones for the UxGE project, with the September 25 event being the first Multiplier Event, showcasing the Online Training Course. The initiative reflects CARDET’s commitment to cultivating environmentally conscious youth and mobilizing collective action for a sustainable future.
