Youth 5.0: AI-Powered Sustainable Solutions for Water Resources and the Environment
General Information
Our project is an international initiative running from 01/09/2025 to 28/02/2027. The project aims to improve young peoples digital skills, enable them to create AI-based eco-friendly solutions, and particularly to develop innovative practices for the protection of water resources and environmental sustainability.
Main Objectives
- Increase young peoples' digital literacy and knowledge of artificial intelligence.
- Support environmental sustainability by promoting efficient water use, smart irrigation systems and environmental technologies.
- Strengthen inclusion and equal opportunities so disadvantaged groups can participate in the digital transition.
Concrete Targets
- Digital Competences: 150 young people will receive AI-based training and approximately 1,500 people will be indirectly reached through an "AI Awareness Day".
- Environmental Sustainability: Through "From River to Field" and "Water Forum" activities we aim for 20% water and 15% energy savings and the development of 5 sustainable agriculture projects.
- Inclusion and Equality: 60 young people will take part in the "Digital Climate Ambassadors" program and will lead environmental projects.
