Green Camp"-"Climate Ambassadors" starts selecting participants!

The EIEC is announcing the selection of participants for the Green Camp-"Climate Ambassadors" within the project - "Reducing the risk of climate-driven disasters in Georgia".

Young people aged 15-17 who will join the volunteer network are welcome to enter  the camp and take part in awareness raising activities planned by the EIEC.

The camp aims to raise awareness among young people about topics regarding environmental protection and climate-driven disasters, strengthen teamwork skills among participants, and plan and manage an environmental advocacy campaign using non-formal education approaches.

As a result the camp will inspire participants to work together with the leaders and create cooperative environmental initiatives and activities.

Green camp will be held on September 2-11 in Bakuriani. 

Thirty young people will be selected throughout Georgia.

The deadline of sending the applications is August 15.

Participants will be selected in two stages:

1. Application form—see Appendix (motivational letter and video appeal of the participant on the climate-driven disaster problems in Georgia and ways to solve them). The video appeal duration has to be 3 minutes and reflect a specific project idea.

2. Interview

The Green Camp "Climate Ambassadors" is organised by the EIEC under the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Agriculture of Georgia within the large-scale initiative of the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) "Reducing the risk of climate-driven disasters in Georgia,",that serves to protect the Georgia population from climate-driven disasters and is implemented with the support of the Green Climate Fund (GCF), the governments of Georgia, Sweden, and Switzerland.
