SenGA’s long-term objective was to increase the awareness of seniors and experts and educators working with them about recycling, circular economy and "green" and environmentally friendly solutions and to create educational resources in the field suitable for them, so as to support their active aging and social inclusion. Specific objectives: 1. Improving teaching competences of non-formal and informal adult educators, training professionals, social workers and assistants who work with elders. 2. Creating opportunities for elder adult learners to increase their awareness about creative recycling, circular economy and different types of activities which they could do for active aging, inclusion and socialization. 3. Creating a non-formal network of "senior green ambassadors" of the idea of active aging, creative recycling and circular economy, who want to take the lead and become non-formal peer-to-peer educators. 4. Promoting cross-sector, inter-generational and transnational cooperation and exchange of experience, best practices and lesson learned between partner countries, and educational and training centres from formal, non-formal and informal education.
