Besides making products, non formal education and business plan methods will be used in this project too. The participants will learn how to develop their initiatives into business plan. They will exchange and learn from each other creative methods, how to make practical, art and eco products from recycling materials.

They will have chance to express their critical thinking and explore their creativity and entrepreneurship in group. The YE is designed as a mutual learning situation, where participants can experience and compare different approaches of developing creative ideas. The programme and contents of the YE are planned to encourage participation, shared creativity, innovativity and responsibility of the group, while using active and participatory methods. The method we will use is “learning by experience” and “learning by doing”. Young people will be involved in the each stage of the YE trough giving feedback on the ongoing basis about program, workshop, ideas and learning process.
