ECOSystems intends to foster a sense of community and co-responsibility for Sustainability by building bridges between innovative and relevant stakeholders: eco-communities and marginalised youth. Changes start from the people and the ecological crisis’ overcoming is strictly related to a change of behavior in our society from the local level. We will empower eco-communities as relevant actors in education for this interconnection between environment, sustainability and community.

Second cluster will be dedicated to enhancing eco-communities skills in non formal education and eduscation for sustainable development. Finally 3rd cluster is meant to build bridges among eco-communities and marginalised youth for a more resiliant and inclusive society.
