GICE is a project which will bring together 40 youth workers (9 organizations from 4 youth workers each organization in each training and 4 trainers/stakeholders) to enhance mainly their entrepreneurship skills and environmental awareness. It is a fact that youth unemployment in Europe is high, limiting the opportunities young people must develop themselves and their competences. Moreover, Environmental downgrading is something concerning European Union and other countries. Also, as we can see in all over Europe discrimination, refugees that are coming from everywhere in Europe, racism between them religion and national discrimination, all these are coming to people through the discrimination also of the environment so all these we will try to make them common for all European young people. Main aim of GICE is to contribute to the development and evolvement of young people from Europe while diminishing the environmental impact of human activities by enhancing the Green Entrepreneurship among young people and facing the problem of the discrimination also between people and people with environment.

Relevance of the project for Erasmus + :
• -Improving the key competencies and skills of young people;
• -Including PAXs with fewer opportunities;
• -Promote participation and active citizenship in European labor market;
• -Increasing learning mobility opportunities for young people active in youth work;
• -Enhanced cooperation
