Dear friends,

EuroDEMOS Association will develop the European Training "Sustainable development as lifestyle" in Iasi, Romania, on 13th – 22nd of September 2009. This project has been funded with support from the European Commission through Youth in Action Programme.

As you know sustainable development is one of the greatest challenge of the XXI century.

According to World Commission on Environment and Development, each year the number of human beings increases, but the amount of natural resources with which to sustain this increase of population, to improve the quality of human lives and to eliminate mass poverty remains finite.

In terms of the persistent trends of growing population numbers, there
will be an enormous challenge in meeting the needs of almost twice as
many people as there are today in the space of a few decades.

EuroDEMOS Association is looking for partners for the Training
"Sustainable development as lifestyle". The training approaches
the theme of sustainable development and will be focus especially on
Waste Selective Collection.

EuroDEMOS is a Civic Attitudes Association, specialized in the last 19
years of voluntary activity in forming opinion leaders by developing
civic programmes at mass level and on target groups, of defending human
rights, democratic values, European and sustainable development
principles.

the theme using non-formal methods and will treat the subjects:

- An overview on Sustainable Development;

- The Waste problems at European and local level;

- What means Waste Selective Collection?

- How to manage a successful awareness campaign on Sustainable
Development, especially on Waste Selective Collection;

- The role of NGOs (Civil Society) in promoting the importance of
sustainable development;

- The importance of celebrating European Mobility Week and other
European environmental days;

- Personal development and lifestyle in sustainable development.

The training will include an intercultural evening, work-shops, debate,
