Description of the tool

Rural areas are full of traditions, culture and rich nature which are not valued enough by inhabitants who live there. Young people just leave from the villages and farms and moving to big cities with hopes to have a better lifestyle there. They believe that they will be employed there easier and faster nevertheless, this will not happen easily with everyone. Meanwhile the villages become abandoned, lost their culture and traditions, and young people even don’t recognise what they lost. So one of the biggest tasks is nowadays for youth organisations to support rural youth, young people have to fight for their cultural values of their villages, preserve and even renew the traditions, protect the natural heritages and initiate small entrepreneurships to do that and through these, employ people in rural areas in the sake of better lifestyle and keep rural area as valued as possible.
Young people have to recognise the values of culture, traditions and nature what their villages have and learn how to renew and promote it. Youth workers, youth leaders from rural areas through youth organisations can give support them nevertheless, they have to have methods and tools how they can do that.

Description of the tool

At the United Nations Sustainable Development Summit on 25 September 2015, world leaders adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which includes a set of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, fight inequality and injustice, and tackle climate change by 2030. The new SDGs, and the broader sustainability agenda, go much further than the Millenium Development Goals, addressing the root causes of poverty and the universal need for development that works for all the people. The manual you are holding right now has been developed to raise awareness and help youth workers from all around the world to work with the topic of SDGs.
One of the characteristics of the global problems is their interconnectedness and the need of global mobilization to tackle them. An example, in very simplified words: poverty can cause illiteracy problem, and that leads to the population growth due to the lack of family planning, and the demographic pressure increases the levels of poverty. Or we could also say that climate change is causing declining rainfall and this influence the food security, that is influencing the famine, and causing that the states fail. Those kinds of examples you can multiply in almost an endless way. In order to fight these global challenges, a complex approach addressing all the problems needs to be undertaken, and for this we need the collaboration of the whole global community.

It will hopefully include some fun and inspiring moments for you and might even change a bit the way you work and think. Possibly even the way you look at the world and yourself as a drawer. We want to encourage you to step out of your adult and professional routines, connect with your inner child and (re)discover your natural ability to communicate and express yourself in a more visual way. Together, we will explore the potential of visual language and show you some first steps, tips and tricks to put ideas on paper and to start using visual tools in your life and educational work – at school, in seminars, during coaching sessions or while running projects at the local youth club
