Overview

From Waste to Waste is an Erasmus+ project designed to empower young people and NGOs with the essential skills and knowledge to implement circular economy principles effectively. By focusing on fostering sustainable, inclusive, and environmentally conscious communities, this initiative addresses pressing global challenges related to waste and resource management.

The project aims to enhance awareness of the circular economy through a structured series of educational activities, the development of innovative resources, and targeted outreach efforts. Participants will gain practical tools and insights to reduce waste, repurpose materials, and embrace sustainable practices in their daily lives and organizational operations.
