The EIEC announces the selection of participants for the Green Camp, "Climate Ambassadors" within the project "Reducing the Risk of Climate-Driven Disasters in Georgia", which will be held on June 19–27 in Bakuriani.
The camp aims to raise awareness about environmental concerns and climate change among 15- to 17-year-olds. The camp will also contribute to the strengthening of teamwork skills among the participants, the formation of mutual trust and communication, the development of self-presentation skills, and learning how to write and present projects to decision-makers.
Following the camp, the participants and the leaders will develop joint initiatives that will be put into practise at the local level.
Participants for the camp are chosen from all throughout Georgia.
