The EU faces challenges impacting all citizens, including youth. While nations have their own interests, collaboration is essential for solutions. These challenges offer opportunities for students, future policymakers engaged with global issues. Meetings on the theme of HOME inspire action and sustainable practices, fostering creativity and environmental awareness. Schools, teachers, students, and parents benefit from improved teaching methods and exposure to diverse European cultures.

By working in cross-cultural groups, students will come together to develop their knowledge and skills within themes related to sustainability. Working with experts in each field, students will investigate water management (the Netherlands), the impact of heat waves and water scarcity (Spain), and the intersection of green energy and minority rights (Norway). The project promotes social inclusion and understanding through collaboration across borders.

The project will teach students how they can contribute to tackling climate challenges. Each meeting will result in a final product. Teachers will create innovative teaching resources to enhance their school's curriculum, improving teaching methods with an international outlook. Students will gain knowledge and develop language, entrepreneurship, and digital skills. Long-term, they will foster cross-cultural understanding and readiness to face Europe’s future challenges.
