The EcoTour, EcoCure! project, funded by the Erasmus+ programme, aims to advance the principles of the EU Green Deal in tourism activities across Europe. From 1 September 2024 to 31 October 2025, the project will bring together 40 young people, aged 18 to 30, from five EU and Candidate States for a nine-day learning journey. The goal is to promote more sustainable recreational activities. The project focuses on enhancing the green skills of young participants in areas such as ecotourism, eco-entrepreneurship, and natural conservation, while also fostering their creativity through entrepreneurship.
