Unfortunately, it was during the 80's that we began to discuss more often about recycling. To compensate this delay, we must make an effort to consolidate recycling as a common practice in our day life, raising awareness among the young ones about the importance of these small gestures. And is not just about recycling, is also about re-use; only this will allow to decrease the amount of waste produced and the consequent ecological footprint that our passage through the Earth leaves.
That’s why we created the youth exchange "Recycle Now", which bring together 30 young people from five EU countries (Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Italy and Romania), held in the city of Setúbal, for a set of four workshops about recycling (including instruments, toys and clothing), visits to recycling companies and historical sites of Setubal, outdoor activities and social initiatives, always using non-formal education and tools like intercultural dialogue.
