Future Generation is the key for sustainable development. Even more in a territory like the alpine space, which is threatened by a strong demographical change which is making the Alps ageing. This project aims to strengthen youth participation in the Alps. The motor of the process are active, skilled, engaged young people coordinate by competent youth leader and a stabile and efficient international network able to foster local activities at the national level in order to anchor youth participation. 36 participants from 6 alpine country, aged between 15 and 30 y.o., with different cultural and educational background are working together with national NGOs to get new skills to become proactive in their community.The main activity is a series of four trainings, where Academia and Entrepreneurs can eventually join the NGOs/Youth group to align the vision of research and praxis fields. Further activities are a Youth Exchange and European voluntary service as added value for the exchange and organisational support to the project. Through different coaching and interactive methods, inputs and pilot action, the young people will work in cross-regional thematic groups developing new ideas also for new sustainable jobs in the Alps. The impact of the project will be on the personal, national and european level. Young people will feel an increased motivation to stay living in the Alps, because new ideas are developed also thanks to their contribution and new job opportunities are generated. At the european level, the alpine network focusing on youth is strengthened and stabilized; at the national level, National NGOs and young people work together being active in their region coordinating their activities at the national level.
