BioYouToon Partners Gathered in Turkey
In April 2024, the BioYouToon partners gathered in Iznik, Turkey, for a dynamic 5-day workshop dedicated to refining the Online Toolkit designed for youth workers and young people. This innovative Toolkit aims to educate on biodiversity through an engaging web-based cartoon approach.
The workshop combined enjoyable activities with educational content, ensuring the Toolkit is both informative and fun. A key highlight was the rigorous testing of activities by over 20 youth workers, including the project partners, to ensure their practicality and effectiveness. This collaborative effort marks a significant step towards finalizing a unique resource that promises to make learning about biodiversity accessible and enjoyable for young audiences.
