Aims of the tool

OBJECTIVES
To train youth workers in the development and implementation of sustainable smart city solutions using digital technologies.
To provide youth workers with the opportunity to develop their own projects related to smart cities and sustainable development and receive mentoring and support to help them implement their ideas.
To raise awareness about the importance of sustainable smart cities among youth workers and inspire young people to take action in their own communities.
To contribute to the EU's goal of achieving more sustainable and inclusive urban development and fostering the development of smart cities across Europe.

Description of the tool

This project is a critical response to the pressing issues facing Europe, including climate change, pollution, and biodiversity decline. With urbanization on the rise and significant economic and social challenges from the COVID-19 pandemic and Ukraine-Russia war, it's imperative to act now. The project aims to create more sustainable and inclusive cities using technology and innovation. It also emphasizes empowering youth as future change-makers and aligns with the European Union's focus on smart cities for sustainable urban development.
PROJECT RESULTS:
R1: SS Community Action Project Plans: We planned to create at least 9 community action plans and follow up with our participants regarding the implementation at the local level.
R2: SS Network: In the network, we aimed to reach a minimum of 15 organizations from Europe and beyond.
R3: SS Toolkit: Creation of a toolkit for sustainable smart city solutions. By creating this toolkit, the project had a lasting impact on the target group and could be used by other youth workers to take action in their own communities. The toolkit would also contribute to raising awareness and promoting the adoption of sustainable smart city solutions, both within the target group and beyond.
