FELCOS ACTIVITIES
Around the world to cooperate
Decentralized Cooperation and Territorial Partnerships Area
Since 2007 we have cooperated in 19 countries around the world and 18 in Europe. Through more than 30 completed international projects we have collaborated with the United Nations, UNDP and the European Union, cultivated relationships with local, regional and national governments, and activated networks among institutions and organizations.
With local institutions to achieve the Agenda 2030 goals
Sustainable Local Development, Agenda 2030 and Participatory Processes Area
Together with local institutions we work for sustainable and inclusive territorial development. We support member municipalities in planning and programming activities, activate participatory processes, and assist them in accessing European and national funds by providing technical assistance.
In schools to educate for sustainability
Global Citizenship and Sustainability Education Area
We look to tomorrow, where tomorrow is found and born. Throughout the entire regional territory we work with schools of all levels, designing educational pathways and carrying out educational workshops. Together with students we co-design sustainability.
With people to tell the story of sustainability
Communication, Information and Awareness Area
Communicating Sustainable Development by combining it with an empathetic narrative capable of engaging especially young people, so that they can play a leading role in participatory processes and in activating networks and local communities. These are the main objectives of our communication activities, which have led to the implementation of numerous experimental projects and the design of various campaigns dedicated to all areas of sustainability. Alongside this, we produce in-house multimedia and multi-format content aimed not only at informing about the results achieved in different activities, but also at sharing the enthusiasm for building a better future for everyone.
