Introduction

 




What is nature? Does this word mean anything to you?
Nature has always provided us with everything we can imagine. Food, water, fresh air, etc. And what do we really do for nature? The absence of a deep emotional connection between humans and the natural world is the root of the environmental crisis. We, us humans have nothing less and nothijg worse than purposefully destroying it. Can wr close our eyes for a moment and imagine what the world will look like if we continue this behaviour? Sooner or later we will have to pay for our actions. We finally need to be aware of the consequences. Start thinking in a broader way, to live more sustainable. This is the reason why our Erasmus+ project ,,LLLS'' ( Leran, Live, Love, Sustainable!) was born. 17 people from 4 countries,( Croatia, Romania, Macedonia and Slovakia) gathered together in Samobor, Croatia to pose some problems regarding these issues we are facing, and to search for ways of living better and more sustainable life. The aim of the project is to spread awareness among the people about some common problems we are facing. We hope to gain more knowledge and to be able to spreas it to the others, so they would be aware also. By doing so, we increase the chances of being conscious and accountable about our actions.

Tools used in the project

In order to achieve a remarkable result throughout some activities that involve people with a common aim , there have to be implemented some tools that would help in learning and understanding a topic, so that is why some magic tools are important for a project that provides sustainability, too. Furthermore, these are the ones used in our LLLS journey: Firstly, some icebreakers aka activities to get to know each other For example, making a circle with the whole group so each person, one by one, says his/her name and associates it with an animal and a gesture. Another game is the Clock game: the one that help people meet and discuss on a topic for about 3-4 minutes for every hour of a clock (12 meeting per general) Secondly, to start the team-building there is another activity by staying in a circle with eyes closed and trying to take 2 random hands and then untying the formed knot of hands connecting to the nature and learning more about what it means, what everybody is doin...

Biggest way to help out nature

 We think that one of the biggest problems that surrounds the whole wide world is mass cutting of trees, especially without planting new ones for the sustainability for the environment. Our video and pantomi demonstrates what we think is the best way to combat this. 

Volunteering and what we can gain from it

Volunteering is a certain activity or work done for free by a person or a group. People can volunteer in various fields. We were brainstorming and came up with many areas of volunteering.  It can be done in NGOs /non governmental organization/, environmental organizations, health care centers, rescue centres, community centres, orphanages, festivals, events, etc. Most common activities can be cleaning the nature, building or renovating public places, harvesting crops, teaching, taking care of the disabled, old or sick, running a bio farm, etc. We also can be volunteering inside in offices to help small businesses or non-profit organizations, organizing summer camps for kids, helping in red cross, public libraries, organizing clothes or book swaps, helping in animal shelters or helping with some events for example concerts or charity gatherings. But why do people volunteer if they do not get any reward for it? The truth is we can gain so much more than money in our life. In offices ...
