Project WC (We Can) is the continuation of the previous project "First things First". The participants till now are very active on Facebook sharing impacts of previous exchange, so partners decided to continue to work on ecological issues. This time they've chosen more narrow theme- Awareness of Water resources and consummation. The idea came while participants in previous exchange had to use small amount of well watter for showering, for washing dishes, hands and having toilet just with sawdust and it gave a lot of thoughts. Besides we understood that because of melting ice (and rising sea level) a lot of people will have to leave their houses. Also in the reflection came out that Europe is getting more floods or dry period which possibly will influence our future a lot and we should now start to think-act about that. So previous partners from Macedonia, Portugal, Lithuania, Spain and Turkey invited one new Austrian organization (involving also Central Europe) and seriously want to work with growth of youngsters in personal and communion levels.Project which will consist of 3 phases :a)Preparation phase (activities- one day national group buildings, setting personal goals, getting know principles of NON formal education+ research about water-person connected challenges+ small investigation/visit to places where natural water resources are preserved and conversation with main ecologist about water pollution and other issues in the participants countries+ preparation of presentation to others).b) Exchange phase (20.08.2016-29.08.2016).
