Le projet « Co-creative youth » porté par l'Office de l'environnement de la Corse en partenariat avec 6 autres organisations (centres de formations, associations des municipalités, acteurs publics, structures IAE) provenant de 6 pays membres (France, Belgique, Espagne, Portugal, Italie, Suède) a permis d'accompagner des projets co-créatifs de territoire dans le secteur du réemploi, de la réparation, de la réutilisation des déchets et à faire évoluer les formations en réponse aux besoins en compétences de ces nouvelles activités. C'est un défi pour l'UE que d'affronter les changements socio-économiques et d'intégrer tous les citoyens, en particulier les jeunes, dans la société. Le besoin de nouveaux emplois dans un secteur peu qualifié, mais aussi pour des jeunes créatifs et très sensibilisés aux questions environnementales, a été pris en compte par le projet Co-creative youth. Durant les 28 mois du projet le partenariat transnational a permis de :- Encourager des partenariats entre les services de gestion des déchets, les collectivités locales, les organismes de formation, les entreprises et les acteurs de l'économie sociale et solidaire (ex: ressourceries) afin de mieux valoriser les potentialités dans ce secteur et enrichir les actions sectorielles d'une réflexion transversale.- Outiller les porteurs de projet pour qu'ils comprennent le jeu d'acteur sur leur territoire et fassent émerger une dynamique autour de leur projet tout en s'inscrivant dans les politiques publiques de prévention.- Promouvoir l’émergence de nouvelles formes d’innovation basées sur le partage, tel que l’innovation frugale intégrant les paramètres sociétaux au cœur des projets.- Favoriser l’insertion sociale et professionnelles des jeunes en difficulté en les initiant à l’intelligence créative, à travers des laboratoires d'innovation ouverte / ateliers de Co-Design.Les productions intellectuelles développées par le partenariat sont :- Etat des lieux et opportunités du territoire à travers des groupe de réflexions- Plateforme de networking et de promotion- Boite à outils pour les porteurs de projet de réemploi- Référentiel de formation / Grille de compétences d'un valorisateur co-créatif- Parcours mixte en laboratoire d'innovation ouverte- Guide méthodologique d'animation du territoire SERD&SEDD- Guide méthodologique de projet de territoire.Tous les membres du consortium Co-creative youth se sont entourés des acteurs stratégiques nationaux et ont co-développé un projet local qui répond aux besoins et aux attentes de leur territoire. Ensemble, ils ont mobilisé tous leurs efforts pour obtenir le plus grand impact possible auprès de la population locale en assurant ainsi sa durabilité. Les 6 projets développés dans le cadre du programme Co-creative youth sont :-L’accompagnement des projets locaux de ressourceries au niveau de 3 microrégions, France-Les classes « produit créatif » et « atelier textile », Espagne-Le test du parcours de formation mixte Co-creative youth à Lisbonne et à Oeiras, Portugal-Comment bien vivre à Gävle en 2030 (action inscrite également dans le cadre de l’Agenda 2030 et des objectifs mondiaux), Suède-Recyclage créatif et intégration, Italie-Valoriste en action, Belgique.L'ensemble de nos résultats et l'illustration de tous nos actions et projets sont disponibles sur la plateforme Co-creative youth : http://cocreativeyouth.eu/

REGENERATE galvanizes clean energy transition on the three Balearic Islands: Palma, Ibiza and Menorca by triggering an investment of €44M in eco-sustainable renovation of 3,000+ homes in 4 years. The Islands have an urgent need to transform their tourism-dependent economy into a resilient and green one, as they are especially vulnerable to climate change and are highly dependent on fossil fuels. The REGENERATE’s renovation formula combines a market-driven, people-centric support with affordable financing, via in local One-Stop-Shop renovation offices on each island. REGENERATE’s pipeline approach is grounded in the realities of the islands building stock, defined energy efficiency & renewable energy upgrades, residents’ ability and willingness to pay. Thus, a realistic assessment of the pipeline supports the design of a self-sustainable business model for the OSS offices and enables the financing instrument to raise private capital to invest in individual home renovation projects. Stimulating bottom-up demand is at the core of this approach; REGENERATE will build upon the existing citizen engagement strategies on the islands and enhance their reach and scope. The impact goes well beyond energy savings, by boosting health, wellbeing and comfort of families, resulting in the reduction of more than 25,727 tCO2-eq/year and creating more than 4,000 jobs, 5 years after the project is completed.

"The MED EDUC project is the result of transnational and multidisciplinary cooperation between 7 organizations active in the field of education for sustainable development in the Mediterranean. It aims the creation of a series of European educational resources for colleges and high schools focused on the discovery of the coastal and marine environment in the Mediterranean: an educational reference system for teachers, an activity guide for teachers and students, and an online resource center capitalizing the activities, providing additional educational materials based on experience feedback covering the entire Mediterranean Basin. The project is primarily focused on pupils, middle and high school teachers, and environmental educators from Europe-Mediterranean working in schools. It brings them new educational tools focused on the specific issues of environmental protection in the Mediterranean Sea (pollution and waste, mass tourism, over fishing, biodiversity loss, coastal erosion, climate change ...) helping to understand the phenomena, to identify the challenges for the future and to contribute to the collective search for solutions. The project is based on the recognition of a lack of environmental education resources specifically focused on the Mediterranean Sea and analyzing the issues and environmental problems under the prism of human/nature cohabitation. The MED EDUC educational resources will be produced in the frame of a high valued transnational, intercultural and multidisciplinary cooperation, combining multiple expertise from the world of formal and non-formal education and the economic and social world. These resources will address the issue of environmental education skills and competencies from multiple focus: - With the creation of a MED EDUC reference system for middle and high school teachers in all disciplines, the project will reinforce the integration of environmental education, focused on the Mediterranean Sea, in the fundamental disciplines, with proposals for activities and content for all age groups from high school to high school and for all subject areas (science, humanities, literary, artistic, physical education, civic education), - This reference system, and the MED EDUC activity guide associated with it, will also contribute to reinforcing the emergence of multidisciplinary educational projects, one of the flagship issue of formal education, by proposing activities integrating different themes and different pedagogical approaches, - By dealing with environmental issues from the perspective of sustainable development, human / nature coexistence in the Mediterranean basin, and combining both the analytical approach (understanding of phenomena) and the invitation to action and projects by and for young people, MED EDUC will also contribute to enrich the field of citizenship education for young Europeans, - By focusing on Euro-Mediterranean cooperation and the intercultural approach to understanding and acting on environmental issues, and promoting exchanges and cooperation (the Mediterranean Sea), MED EDUC will contribute to the emergence of a Mediterranean citizenship of young people based on exchange and mutual understanding, while the Mediterranean basin is today a major subject of social, ethnic and religious tensions. The project also supports the idea of ""opening values and open-mindedness"": - Opening of middle schools and colleges on their environment: to get to know one's place of life, to bring into harmony school disciplines and everyday life - Opening of institutions to their environment: the project partnership includes schools, environmental education centers, environmental and cultural private companies, local authorities and research centers, and the MED EDUC educational activities will be based to a large extent on mobilization of resources and local partners around schools - International openness with intercultural educational tools, reflecting the diversity of problems, contexts, approaches all around the Mediterranean basin and highlighting common features and territorial specificities - International openness always with the emergence of a MED EDUC Mediterranean educational community that will bring together project partners, associated partners, and all those who wish to do so at the end of the project."

The project “Green competencies: Europe safeguarding its natural heritage” developed competency-based training that empowers the end-users with green skills and competencies about natural and cultural landscape preservation, identifying relevant concepts of “cultural landscape”. Building links between partners organization and relevant stakeholders involved in green heritage sustainability, the project contributed effectively to spread of sector-oriented VET the EU cultural heritage recognition and valorisation. In long term perspective, through creating new VET pathways on cultural landscape preservation, our project gave better prospects for VET educators, professionals and touristic tycoons. The project provided also creation a common EU working space for good exchange of knowledge between different EU partners organizations involved in VET about the value of local natural and cultural landscape heritage preservation by integrating awareness and understanding of natural heritage protection into national educational curricula. The consortium (7) was a mix of appropriate complementary institutions with the necessary profile, experiences and expertise to deliver all aspects of the project, coming from different fields of educations and trainings, including newcomer to this action: two foundations of VET profiles (PL), municipality (ES), vocational associations ( EE, FR), educational institution ( IT), priate educational green organisation ( MT). Common target group were VET professionals, teachers, trainers, mentors and local decision makers that need a professional growth to answer to new needs of labour market linked to preserve EU natural heritage. The project involved stakeholders of different profiles and backgrounds from each country to support project activities, to disseminate and to realize follow-up activities. The primary goal was to allow organisations to develop and reinforce networks, increase their capacity to operate at transnational level, shared and confronted ideas and methods, exchanged the best practices. The consortium delivered tangible and intangible results: - the development of entrepreneurial skills in planning cultural and environmental tourism, in the use of English language and ICT, in the efficient management of intercultural communication - creating materials such as poster, brochure, manifesto, flyer, Power Point Presentation of the best practice, Project Facebook Page, landscape catalogue maps of landscape cultural heritage, video-clips as the reportge of principal activities implemented during the project, - many local and international workshops about natural landscape and cultural heritage, - the exchange of good practices in VET about preservation, management and valorisation of the local cultural and natural heritage, Given its complex and comprehensive nature, our project was useful in developing the transversal key competences of: • Digital competencies improvement through the virtual maps creation. • Communication skills and competencies developing a new form of communication strategies on how to promote sustainable development and natural heritage preservation, in particular, we would stimulate trainees to know own landscape characteristic and point to valorise. • Interpersonal, intercultural, social and civic competencies promoting social cohesion and exchange between cultures through the creation of a networking with other national and international VET associations operating in different contexts. • Cultural expression improving awareness of European and national cultural landscape heritage. Impact: - increased EU cultural and natural heritage awareness - higher competencies about cultural landscape, national regulation and EU rules - increased knowledge of native culture - strong bonds with staff from partner organisations - digital skills development - English language skills development - experience of different teaching methods - social skills development - development of communication and intercultural skills (critical thinking, problem solving abilities, team working) The consortium organized 4 project meetings ( PL, IT, EE, FR) to exchange good practice and develop project activities and 2 short-staff trainings (MT, ES) with the combination of other local and international activities, such as: study visits, workshops, seminars, meetings, lectures what allowed to achieve project goals. Dissemination and evaluation activities were developed and were crucial to help to achieve project goals and sustainability.

The aim of INSULAE is to foster the deployment of innovative solutions for the EU islands decarbonization by developing and demonstrating at three Lighthouse Islands (located in Croatia, in Denmark and in Portugal) a set of interventions linked to seven replicable use cases, whose results will validate an Investment Planning Tool that will be then demonstrated at four Follower Islands (located in Spain, in Germany, in The Netherlands Antilles and in Greece) for the development of four associated Action Plans. The chosen islands are complementary in many aspects: location, size, connection with the mainland, economic development, renewable share and carbon intensity. INSULAE contributes to the Clean Energy for EU Islands Initiative by providing an Investment Planning Tool (IPT) able to create Actions Plans for the islands to generate their own sustainable, low-cost energy. The interventions will prove the ability of the use cases to develop RES-based systems 40-70% cheaper than diesel generation, thus, enabling an average reduction of the fossil fuel consumption of 11% after a large deployment of the use cases in the INSULAE islands. The INSULAE IPT will support the decision maker on the selection and design of cost effective Action Plans looking for the island decarbonization. It will be mainly composed by two modules: the Island modeling assistant and the Scenarisation module. The project team is carefully balanced along all the value chain counting with five public authorities, six energy and water utilities, four technology providers, two energy software developers, six RTOs, one environment NGO, one business models expert, one engineering company and one entity for social aspects and replication. The legal and regulatory framework of 57% of the total population living in EU islands will be directly considered within the project.
