Vegi "Waste Master" Cooking Contest, Denmark
Place: Skipper Clement School, Aalborg, Denmark

The 3-person cooking teams made food from given ingredients in a "Mistery-Box" provided by the Nordjysk Food Surplus Association. In this way, the participants got inspiration how to do better and more creative use of leftovers at home in the fridge. The blogger and vegan-cookbook author, Johanne Mosgaard, identified the best dish. Johanne also handed out good advices along the way.

Consuming less meat and fewer milk products would reduce global warming.
Read more in the Project's publication mentioned above on pages 60-63.

The event is organised by UngEnergi (YouthEnergy), the youth section of the Danish organisation VedvarendeEnergi (SustainableEnergy) in cooperation with INFORSE-Europe in the framework of the Project.

Low Carbon Youth Training "Decarbonize Our Future" - Latvia

The young participants from Denmark, Belarus, and Latvia represented INFORSE member organisations like the youth department of the Danish NGO SustainableEnergy (VE), the Latvian Green Movement (LGM), and the Center for Environmental Solutions (CES) in Belarus.

The activities included:
- Explaining key climate change aspects, GHG emissions and carbon footprint, role of consumption patterns, key stakeholders in the process and main challenges, myths about climate change mitigation;
- Practical examples: case studies were discussed on mitigating climate change, role of stakeholders and environmental and youth NGOs in particular;
- Tasks for participants: trainers gave specific tasks to groups of participants to work on different issues, such as developing a specific proposal for carbon footprint reduction in catering or transportation to events;
- Organising local public action: raising awareness on climate, and solutions like renewables and energy efficiency in the town (e.g. presenting materials in public place, interviewing people in streets).
- Commenting the Green Event Guideline, which is under preparation by the Project Partners.

Some conclusions from the participants:
- "It was a very enriching experience to meet people from completely different countries than DK, that shared similar passion for the climate and environment.
- The level of guidance/"teaching" was very high and our trainers sustained a very academic and informative, and yet creative and innovative training.
- It has been a very meaningful experience, to know that we have actually had a real opportunity to contribute to the creation of the " Guidelines" with our own personal inputs and ideas."
