Autor: Dávid Demovič x 10. marec 2026
From January 26th to February 4th, I had the incredible opportunity to participate in the Erasmus+ Training Course “Cool Jobs for a Hot Planet”, which took place in the beautiful locations of Sărata Monteoru and Buzău, Romania. It was an unforgettable experience that combined learning, creativity, and international friendship in a truly inspiring environment.
The training focused on developing the key competences of youth workers to better understand and apply the principles of the circular economy in their everyday work with young people. Through interactive workshops, group activities, and engaging discussions, we explored how sustainability can be integrated into youth work and how we can encourage young people to think more responsibly about the way we produce, consume, and live.
Another important part of the program was learning about sustainable consumption and social entrepreneurship. Together, we worked on creative ideas and practical solutions that could become real projects or even sustainable business plans aimed at making a positive impact on society and the environment.
What made the experience even more special was the international atmosphere. Participants from more than 10 different countries came together, bringing diverse perspectives, ideas, and cultures. It was amazing to meet so many passionate people, share experiences, and learn from each other while building meaningful connections.
Beyond the learning sessions, the training was filled with laughter, cultural exchange, and unforgettable moments. It was truly inspiring to be surrounded by people who care about sustainability and are motivated to create positive change. This experience not only expanded my knowledge but also reminded me how powerful collaboration and international cooperation can be when working toward a better and more sustainable future. 🌍✨
