This training course will take place in the Marbella from 8 to 20 October 2016. For ten days he will participate in 21 youth workers interested in environmental education from Spain, Green, Bulgaria, UK, Germany and Italy.Partner organizations have detected the lack of references, initiative and clear objectives by the youth so this suffering feelings of disconnection with the natural world. Moreover, the problem of youth unemployment truncated emancipation and vital development of youth, especially those in rural areas or lacking the cualifición demanded by the labor market. We face issues such as environmental degradation of the planet, including the loss of soil and forest cover, desertification, loss of habitat and extinction of species, global warming, inequality, disintegration of communities, etc. The project is based on a Permaculture Design Course which is a methodology of non-formal education and is particularly suitable for work with young people to embrace environmental awareness, acquisition of life skills and a source of employment. The location of the activity in the area of environmental education Arboretum Marbella is itself a place with high educative value.
