Youth in Green Ljubljana

Title: Youth in Green Ljubljana

Duration: June 2019 - November 2019

Partner: Municipality of Lubljana

Description:

From June 2019 to November 2019 we have been working on an exciting project with the Municipality of Ljubljana to engage the city’s youth in a constructive dialogue to learn more about how they perceive sustainability and circular economy in their every day lives. We’ve been collecting ideas, comments, criticisms and solutions at two workshops, an online survey and we were impressed with the knowledge and concern they have shown.

The information collected will serve as input for the preparation of upcoming strategies of the city of Ljubljana.

Survey

The survey presented a few simple questions to collect data on how the young people (12 -28 years) engage themselves in the quest for a more sustainable way of living in cities. It was opened for almost two weeks and we gathered dozens of great ideas. Everyone who filled the questionnaire also got the chance to win one of several practical awards. Winners were announced on October 1st.

Final Report

The final report presented the findings and analysis of the data gathered at the workshops and online survey, presented 4 priority areas for further development and gave several recommendations for updating Ljubljana’s strategy documents and engaging its employees to actively support “circular culture”.
