🌍 Meet the YMCA Project Partners – A Strong European Network for Climate Action!
The Youth Municipal Climate Action (YMCA) project brings together a network of six municipalities and organizations from five European countries, all committed to empowering youth and developing sustainable municipal policies to tackle climate change. 🌱
Our partners are at the heart of this initiative, working together to foster youth participation, intergenerational dialogue, and innovative local climate solutions. Let’s meet them!
YMCA partners include:
- Municipality of Alba Iulia – Romania, as lead partner
- Associazione Amici Per Sandrà (on behalf of Municipality of APS del Garda) – Italy
- Association Building Bridges (on behalf of Municipality of Soto del Real) – Spain
- Association Mano Europa (on behalf of Municipality of Kaišiadorys) – Lithuania
- Association Motii Tara de Piatra (on behalf of Municipality of Zlatna) – Romania
- Municipality of Prague – Kolovraty – Czech Republic
As demonstrated by the consortium set-up, each partner holds specific expertise and skills for the implementation of its activities and the provision of meaningful content; they will all work together aiming at a final joint result, not only for a fruitful exchange of best practices in the field of sustainability and environmental protection but also to provide young climate activists with a safe space at the European level, giving them to opportunity and the power to raise their voices and be heard from the international community of policymakers. The professional expertise of partners’ staff and their international contacts will allow the results to spill over to other municipalities and European countries, as well as give a good example of intergenerational and environmental dialogue.
