ABOUT THE PROJECT
In order to save the ocean, we need to change people habits, attitudes and behaviours, towards plastic consumption.
This is why we want to implement “Save The Ocean: Project” (STOP).
STOP aims to take small steps towards better habits & cleaner ocean, helping young people to give a great contribution to our Planet.
OBJECTIVES
The main objectives of STOP are:
To learn about the problems share good practices from around the participating countries/regions;
To look for solutions that encourage people to use less plastic , and with more responsibility;
To raise the qualifications and competences of youth workers and leaders in the field of environmental protection;
To increase the awareness of the problem, by creating social campaigns and related public events;

OUR IMPACT
The project aims to tackle one of the current, and biggest, environmental crisis – water pollution (by plastic waste).
Our vision is to create a program for youth workers and organizations, to encourage them towards more responsible usage of plastics. The project STOP will make the following change in the world:
new capacities will be built by the youth organizations and youth workers;
it will provide concrete tools for YWs & youth to change their & others’ behaviour;
social awareness will be raised (ideally, leading to less plastic over-use).
