Aflatoun partners Škola dokorán – Wide Open School n. o. (Slovakia) and Fundacja Nauka dla Środowiska/Foundation Science for Environment (Poland) have partnered with Pučko otvoreno učilište ‘Korak po korak’ (Croatia) on “AflaGreen: Empowering Youth for a Sustainable Future,” a project selected for funding under the Erasmus+ programme. The project aims to comprehensively develop key competences in young people to help them thrive in a rapidly changing world.
AflaGreen is grounded in the belief that navigating today’s global and economic shifts requires the upcoming generation to have a cohesive set of skills that go beyond traditional education. The project’s goal is to help make financial literacy, digital skills, and ecological thinking a natural part of youth development, equipping young people with practical tools for both their personal and professional lives.
The project connects social and financial education with digital finance, green entrepreneurship, and sustainability principles such as ESG and the circular economy – bringing these vital topics directly into the world of youth work.
Over two years (February 2026 – January 2028), partners from Slovakia, Poland, and Croatia will co-create and pilot a comprehensive educational manual, organize national and international in-person and online trainings for young people and youth workers, and build a community of mentors, educators and engaged youth. The project will also include eco-friendly and social micro-projects designed by young people themselves, a cross-border online competition, and the launch of a multilingual learning platform for sharing experiences and best practices.
The project is funded by the European Union’s Erasmus+ programme for the years 2026 – 2028 (Project ID: KA220-YOU-7B21B5F5).
