Note: The project was presented in the last Erasmus call. We have adapted the project to all the evaluator's comments (reducing the amount of intellectual results, etc.). The current linear models of the industry in the world are mostly coming to an end. The bad management of our sources in production are causing daily tons of waste, shortage of resources, etc. making irreparable damages to our Earth: climate change, etc. To tackle this situation, there has been a slow transition from linear to circular models. The Circular Economy has begun to be introduced in the current economic and environmental policy of the European Commission, particularly through the EU Action Plan for the Circular Economy presented by the European Commission to the European Parliament in December 2015. The idea of circular economy in project management is increasing in relevance during the lasts and over the coming years. However, most people do not know yet what circular economy is and its importance. Circular Economy principles and the ways in which it may be incorporated in project management are not already well documented yet in academic literature. There’’s still a gap between theory and practice Our strategic partnership composed by Medeina Foundation, Permacultura Cantabria and ASSO has decided to carry out the project “Join the CIRCLe with Erasmus + (CIRCL-E+)” to tackle this problem. We have identified in the most important project management methodologies, that none of them incorporates circular economy models. We conducted a survey among youth workers and youth from Poland, Spain and Romania (70 people from each country). The main conclusions show that young people are interested in: Protecting the planet and changing the world. Projects on sustainable entrepreneurship The use of a circular economy and sustainable tools in your life. Young people are confident that knowledge about the circular economy will open more doors in their professional lives. Most of them do not have the tools to define and implement the project and would like to acquire them. The main aim of the project is to empower youth workers and young people with tools for the creation of circular and sustainable projects as we are sure they are the key to accelerate this transition, as potential drivers for change. The objectives of the project are: 1To transfer the best practices carried out in our countries and our organisations regarding circular economy 2.To develop new tools and methodologies for the creation of circular and sustainable projects 3.To empower youth workers and young people with new tools and methodologies for the creation of circular and sustainable projects The main activities in our project are: There will be 3 participatory visits, one in each country (Poland, Spain and Romania) where partners will transfer their best practices and tools related to entrepreneurship, sustainability and the 7 key elements of circular economy in which they are experts. During the participatory visits we will carry out study visits and round tables with important organisations to know what it has been done in these countries related to Circular Economy. The best practices acquired will be the basis for the creation of new tools and methodologies to empower our target groups (youth workers and young people) to develop sustainable projects fostering the transition of linear to circular models. The new tools and methodologies will be documented, creating an interactive book. It will provide youth workers and young participants with: -A practical approach to implementing circular economy and sustainable development goals (SDG´s) in any project or organisation. -A simple way for transforming organisations towards circular economy. -A roadmap for young entrepreneurs who wish to create innovative sustainable projects. We will carry out 2 transnational meetings in Spain: 1 kick-off meeting and 1 evaluation meeting. We will carry out a dissemination campaign looking forward to providing the project’s activities, intellectual output, results, etc. in regional, national, European and international levels, increasing the awareness in youth communities of the importance of implementing circular models in their projects for the preservation of our planet. A brief summary of the impact expected is: The participants will have acquired new skills and tools in circular economy and will be able to create and manage sustainable projects. They will have increased their level of awareness about importance of circular economy for the preservation of our planet and will contribute to start new sustainable projects under this new model. Circular Economy will be part of Medeina Foundation‘s, ASSO’s and Permacultura Cantabria’s cornerstones. They will be able to empower young people and youth workers with tools and methodologies for the creation of sustainable projects under this new model, becoming reference organisations in this field in their countries.

The main aim of the project was the writing, publication, translation and exhaustive dissemination of the Youth Emotional Management Guide. This guide is a useful tool, so that youth workers could improve the competences needed in the emotional work towards their learners, giving pedagogical guidelines on active listening, emotional discharge and other strategies to work with young groups about the oppressions and mistreatment they receive and that are perpetuated by them. A teaching unit was also writing collaboratively to offer specific activities to organisations wishing to work with groups about this topic.Through the dissemination of the project´s results (the 3 versions of the guide and the teaching unit, both published in Czech, Spanish and Estonian) and the summary video of the conferences where the results will be presented) we would like to improve the quality of youth work, through capacity building on emotional management.The innovative and participative design of these two years project also provided a decisive strengthening of the professional skills, for the staff of the three participating organisations (Sokratovské rozhovory z.s, Permacultura Cantabria,EESTI PEOPLE TO PEOPLE). This strengthening was especially important, with regard to the emotional management in the youth work and non-formal educational framework, the employment of ITCs and the linguistic competences. Thus, they could, in turn, improve the quality of their daily youth work as well as their teaching and the learning of the young people with whom they interact.The specific goals of this partnership were:-Bestow the basic emotional management tools for non-formal education on youth workers.-To raise awareness, among those relevant agents in the educational decision-making, of the relevance of the emotional issues, in order to achieve an education of quality.-Introducing innovative improvements, related to the emotional management in youth training, with the consequent direct impact in the learning quality of the young people, their inclusive education and their future employability.-Broadening the knowledge about emotional management of the participating organisations, by means of online and on-site networking.-Laying the foundations for other future long-term collective projects in the emotional field.The main activities comprised in the Project included: (a) the realisation of three transnationals meetings (two were organised online), in which the representatives of the participating organisations reviewed the working plan and evaluated the project until that moment; (b) the joint online writing, publication and dissemination of the Youth Emotional Management Guide and the Teaching Unit on Emotional Management for Youth Workers, by all the participating organisations; (c) on-site conferences with different stakeholders relevant for educational decision-making, in each of the three participating countries that enhanced the results dissemination. After the conferences, the educational challenges identified were further addressed through teamwork.Long-term impact for the participating organisations included a greater confidence of our youth workers and trainers, to face the challenge of emotional education, a high-quality education, from the point of view of inclusion, academic and professional success, as well as the social and personal integrity of their learners. In addition, contacts were shared during the project, contributing to the creation of a transnational net of organisations interested in the emotional education, which, at the same time, could end up in future projects.Through the dissemination of the outcomes, the partners were also informing and persuading key educational stakeholders, so that the emotional issues were, definitely, taken into account, in all educational aspects (from youth work practice, to educational legislation). Thus, the organisations, that participate in the project, had also a greater European involvement, widening the influence of their role, as key actors, creating connections between different stakeholders, in the field of education.
