It focuses on developing green competences through adult education, increasing their environmental awareness and promoting pro-ecological attitudes. The project will include three international events, involving both staff and seniors. The first of them will be a study visit to Latvia, during which participants will learn about good practices in the field of conscious, ecological choices. This will be followed by two creative ecological workshops – in Italy and Poland. In addition, a virtual gallery of seniors' works will be created and open days will be organized in each of the partner organizations. The expected results of the project are, among mentioned visits, the development of international cooperation, the introduction of new ecological content to classes for seniors and the increase of their awareness of environmental protection. The key effect will be to change the daily habits of the participants.
