The “Fifty Shades of Tourism” project, funded by Erasmus+, aims to promote sustainable tourism by educating and empowering young people. Running from September 2024 to August 2025, it involves a youth exchange with 30 participants from six countries, focusing on the impacts of tourism on the economy, society, and environment. The project seeks to raise awareness and develop skills for responsible tourism practices, contributing to global sustainable development. Participants will gain insights into the economic, social, and environmental effects of tourism and learn sustainable practices to mitigate negative impacts.
