About The Project

The SMART Project is an innovative Erasmus+ initiative that encourages young people to take an active role in building sustainable, environmentally friendly cities. The project aims to strengthen collaboration between municipalities and youth, ensuring that young people are actively involved in smart city initiatives and urban sustainability efforts.

In today’s rapidly evolving urban landscape, engaging youth in developing innovative and sustainable solutions is crucial. Through this project, young participants will gain knowledge about urban planning, environmental policies, and climate change mitigation strategies. Additionally, they will have the opportunity to develop their own projects, enhance their entrepreneurial skills, and establish youth-led NGOs that contribute to sustainable urban development.
