The Project was presented in the context of a study visit
On October 15th, 2021, OPTIMA Project was presented at a study visit of the EnvironmentYou Project in Thessaloniki, Greece. The visit was organized by the Hellenic National Youth Council (HNYC) and its objectives were:
- the theoretical reinforcement of the experiential method through the interconnection of theory with practical application;
- the active and participatory learning process;
- to familiarize participants with the use of “good” practices;
- the understanding of their environmental and economic benefits;
- the revision of misconceptions and the application of the newly formed theory in practice.
The EnvironmentYou – Environmental Management Enhancement by Youth-run SMEs project focuses on developing specially designed promotion and organisation procedures aiming in the successful diffusion and effective implementation of EMSs in enterprises. The SMEs will be the ones operated by younger people in the cross-border region of Greece and Bulgaria and that are focusing on agricultural activities.
The EnvironmentYou project was launched in June 2019 and will be implemented for two years, in the framework of the Cooperation Programme Interreg V-A “Greece-Bulgaria 2014-2020”, which is co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and by national funds of the countries participating in the Interreg V-A “Greece-Bulgaria 2014-2020” Cooperation Programme.
