Let Us Think Green
An European Project for Environmental Sustainability
We are proud to present Let Us Think Green, an Erasmus initiative that raises awareness about the importance of sustainability and environmental protection. This project, carried out in cooperation with organizations from Greece, Italy, Turkey, and Bulgaria, developed a series of activities that engage local and transnational communities. In particular, we focus on how we can create a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable world.
Think Green Goals: Promoting Environmental Sustainability
Let Us Think Green’s main objective focuses on raising awareness about maintaining a clean and sustainable environment. Moreover, the project emphasizes the conservation of essential natural resources such as water, air, and coastal areas, which are crucial for the well-being of European citizens. By organizing training events, green conferences, and awareness-raising activities, we aim to educate young people and local communities about the significance of sustainability and environmental protection.
Thinking Green in an Erasmus+ Project: International Cooperation for Environmental Sustainability
Tavo Europa, along with various European associations, implemented this project under the Erasmus program. Notably, our partners from Greece, Bulgaria, Turkey, and Italy brought diverse experiences and good practices to the table. This international collaboration not only strengthened our project’s impact but also fostered shared learning and innovative solutions for environmental challenges across Europe.

Work Packages of Let Us Think Green: Four Steps for Environmental Sustainability
The project comprises four main phases, known as work packages:
Work Package 1 (January – September 2023): During this phase, we focused on project management, coordination, online training, and research on best practices.
Work Package 2 (October – December 2023): Here, we organized awareness activities in various locations, including Dalyan and Mugla in Turkey.
Work Package 3 (January – July 2024): We will host green conferences and exhibitions in Turkey.
Work Package 4 (August – December 2024): Finally, we will disseminate the project’s results across Europe.
Planned Activities: Working Together for a Green Environment
The Let Us Think Green project features a comprehensive set of activities aimed at promoting sustainability and protecting the environment:
Training Sessions: We will offer both online and in-person training led by experts in environmental science. These sessions will cover crucial topics like water conservation, renewable energy, and sustainable living practices. Ultimately, our goal is to equip participants with practical knowledge they can apply in their communities.
Awareness Events: To engage citizens, we will organize local campaigns in each partner country, involving workshops, discussions, and community actions. Consequently, these events will encourage green behaviors and emphasize the importance of environmental protection.
Green Conferences and Exhibitions: A central component of our project involves hosting green-themed conferences and exhibitions. These gatherings will provide platforms for stakeholders, including NGOs, policymakers, and community leaders, to present solutions, share ideas, and foster collaborations for a sustainable future.
Good Practice Exchanges: Our partner organizations will share and exchange successful environmental projects and best practices. As a result, this collaborative effort will create a rich database of solutions adaptable to various local contexts, ensuring we maximize our sustainability impact.
Local and Transnational Partnerships: Additionally, we seek to build lasting partnerships at both local and international levels. By creating these networks, Let Us Think Green aims to extend its influence beyond the project duration, thereby encouraging ongoing collaboration on environmental initiatives.
Expected Results of the Let Us Think Green Project
The Let Us Think Green project is set to deliver several key results that contribute to a more sustainable future:
-
Creation of a Transnational Collaboration Model: A primary goal is to develop a collaboration model between various European organizations. In addition, this model will serve as a blueprint for future projects aimed at protecting the environment, promoting cooperation on issues like clean water, air quality, and preserving natural ecosystems across borders.
-
Increased Environmental Awareness: Through our planned activities, we will raise awareness in local and international communities about the importance of sustainability and environmental stewardship. As a result, participants, communities, and stakeholders will gain a deeper understanding of how their actions impact the environment. Furthermore, they will learn what steps they can take to reduce their ecological footprint.
-
Enhanced Skills and Knowledge: A significant outcome of the project will be the development of practical skills among participants. By engaging in training, workshops, and hands-on activities, individuals involved in the project will become better equipped to lead sustainability efforts in their regions. Moreover, this empowerment is crucial for ensuring that the green practices we promote continue to thrive long after the project concludes. Consequently, participants will feel confident in their ability to drive change within their communities.
