From Footprints to Blueprints: a free training in Slovenia for those educating for sustainability

by | Jun 8, 2026 | from our networks

If you believe that sustainability is not just a theory, but a practice to be passed on to new generations, this opportunity is for you.

As part of the European project Sustainable Steps., the international training “From Footprints to Blueprints” was born: a week-long intensive exchange in Slovenia. It is not just theory, but a participatory course on the three pillars of sustainability – environmental, social and economic – designed specifically for those who accompany young people on their growth paths.

Why participate?

WWOOF has always been synonymous with “learning by doing.” This training, funded by the Erasmus+ program, takes that concept to a European level, offering you:

  • Ready-to-use educational tools on sustainability and inclusion.
  • Hands-on workshops on green building with natural materials and sustainable gardening.
  • Innovative methods for actively engaging young people.
  • International networking: you will rub shoulders with colleagues from Austria, Spain, Ireland and Slovenia.
