Presentation of good practice
THE good practice targets young people, aged 10-19. The program takes place in an urban environment and aims to raise awareness against environmental pollution, waste and the destruction of natural habitats, primarily through the recycling of waste paper . The activity gives participants the opportunity to experience first-hand how waste can be used to create new value and life, how the natural cycle works, and what simple, yet significant, steps can be taken for a more livable future.
During the program , a paper recycling workshop is held, and then the young people press flower seeds between the prepared paper sheets, which are later planted. The good practice uses a non-formal learning method that combines creative craft activities ( paper recycling , pressing flower seeds) and environmentally conscious attitude formation. Participants learn the steps of waste recycling through practical tasks , while coming into direct contact with the natural cycle and contributing to the beautification of their environment with their own hands.
Good practice builds on collaboration with schools, NGOs and environmental organizations, which allow young people to be involved in the program more widely. The program responds to the recycling of waste paper , the development of craft and practical skills, increasing environmental awareness and increasing connection with nature.
The effectiveness of the program shows that participants actively experienced the benefits of paper recycling and, as a result, are showing a growing interest in environmental awareness, so the program has achieved the desired effect.
To inform the public on social media They used media platforms (facebook, instagram ).
Adaptability
To effectively implement good practice, it is necessary to provide the right tools and materials, to ensure an accessible location, a time frame, and to actively involve the participants in practice. Instead of professional tools, the process can also be carried out with household tools (e.g. blender, mosquito net, heavy books). The program revealed that even simple tools can have a great impact, and that practical activities provide a much more lasting experience than theoretical education.
It is important to note that papermaking and planting require preparation, such as securing tools, drying time, and a location, so it is worth planning each step in advance when organizing. A playful, informal approach is recommended and effective.
