Abstract:
sustainability of action
This project, in line with the ultimate aim of the "EUROPE FOR CITIZENS" programme (2.1: Town Twinning), to bring the Union closer to its citizens, aims to raise awareness among "small European citizens" of issues relating to environmental sustainability, respect for the territory and its many products (agricultural landscape and typical products, etc..), with a view to a circular economy. All this to try to improve the conditions for civic and democratic participation at EU level.
The project in general aims to raise awareness of a very important consumer, "the child and adolescent", to raise awareness among the new generations to respect the environment, promote continuity between educational information and training, aimed at adequate environmental liveability and link and promote exchange between school and voluntary associations.
The wealth of experience that the "small European citizen" brings with him, can be complementary to the training of young people to respect themselves and others, the importance of relationships with others, the values of solidarity and altruism, the responsibility of civil living and volunteering.
The specific objectives of the SAT project can be summarised as follows:
- To make known and promote the centrality of the rural world and the role of agriculture, in the affirmation of values such as: renewable energy, healthy food, quality of life, respect for nature for current and future generations.
- To promote a knowledge of the rural, agricultural and forestry environment as a whole, the necessity of behavioural norms suitable for an active defence, a correct use and respect of natural environments.
- To promote the knowledge of the agricultural products of the territory characterized by certified quality and high food healthiness.
- Promote actions that encourage a new food policy aimed at making informed choices about food and healthy eating habits.
- Knowing, socializing, training and changing the way we manage culture, supply and food waste.
- To make known and promote the multifunctional role of the artisan company as a supplier of goods and services, to protect the environment and the rural landscape.
The results of the project will be pursued with a European dimension, promoting opportunities for social and intercultural engagement and volunteering at EU level.
This project is in line with the objectives of the "EUROPE FOR CITIZENS" programme (2.1: Town Twinning) and is also structured for multi-annual activities.
