The availability of green spaces and urban gardens for active participation in plant food cultivation and/or gardening has been an integral support to young people, who may not had the opportunity to fully experience contact with nature. It has also been proven to be an effective engagement tool to connect the elderly, especially for those who feel most alienated and excluded from our society as well as individuals with additional needs.
EU Green aims to recognise the skills of young people to be agents of change, to create inclusive communities with other generations, to learn how to make a difference and encourage sustainable use of the resources around them to create a more inclusive society.
EU Green will be a bridge between generations. It will break down the barriers of established generational norms. Older people will share the value of life experience. In addition this project supports intergenerational relationships to establish using food and the environment around us as a medium of change.
