Project Summary

"Experience Exchange among V4 and Georgian Youth for Building Sustainable Communities" is a project supported by the International Visegrad Fund, that aims to increase awareness and knowledge of sustainable development, particularly the SDGs, among young citizens aged 18-29 from V4 countries and Georgia. By connecting 5 civil society organizations and 20 active youth participants, the project will host a summer school that covers SDG localization, sustainable community building, and citizen engagement methods. The interactive program will equip participants with the necessary skills to actively contribute to sustainable development efforts and foster international networks for idea exchange and best practices. By addressing the current gap in understanding and engagement among citizens, this project strives to drive progress towards achieving the SDGs and creating a more sustainable future.
