ELY Handbook (37 pages) (pdf - TK) includes guiding to the trainer how to do the training for the 14 methods in the 4 modules. It includes how to introduce the topic, how to implement, easy and advanced versions, question points for discussion, and conclusions.
There is also an estimation how much time a method takes and, which facilitator material, and fact sheet can be used.

The participants get statements on climate impacts, which they discuss and decide if the statements are true or false. Participants work in par or a small team.

- Relevant Fact Sheets:What is Climate Change, Social Aspects of the Climate Change.

Each team of 3-4 persons receives a fact sheet, on the ingredients of a Chicken Sandwich and statements on climate and environmental effects. The task is to decide which effects are related to the Chicken Sandwich.

The group stands in a circle and casting a ball to an other person in the circle. The person who is casting the ball say something about the topic.The topics are how do use energy / how do you save energy/ what do you do for the environment; or what kind of renewable energy source you know. The method is an interactive energiser activating prior knowledge through movement and quick idea-sharing.
- Use pages in the Handbook: #13-14 and Facilitator Material # 23.
- Relevant Fact Sheets: Energy Savings, Efficiency and Sufficiency; 100% Renewable Energy.

Hands-on 5 stations where each team circulate among the stations, where they test renewable energy models, measure energy use and compare efficiency, and discover cooking options including discuss the differences and similarities between North and South, and women's role.
- Use pages in the Handbook: #15-18 and Facilitator Material: 5 stations.
- Relevant Fact Sheets: Solar Energy; Wind Energy; Biomass Energy; 100% Renewable Energy; Energy Savings Efficiency.
- Extra option: using the solar and wind energy history sheets, the pictures and graphs answering a set of simple questions.

Each team of 3-5 persons receive a game board and different CO2 bricks symbolising the CO2 use in tons per year. The bricks are in different sectors. Each team decides that which which lifestyle they have in the do they eat meat/chicken, do they drive car, have a dog/cat, computer, how they heat their home, and are they travel to holiday by flight/train/bicycle or stay at home.
The typical choices end up all too much CO2, so they need to reduce the consumption. The game can do 2-3 round in reeducation. Each team explain their choices. The winner is the team which can reduce the CO2 most.
Finally, there is an option to reduce the base CO2 use, which is not depending on the invidual choices, but the state using state policy cards, which can reduce/increase the CO2.
Each choices are discussed by the team. The board game is a good discussion point how lifestyle choices and policy decisions shape our carbon footprints.

- Relevant Fact Sheets: Energy Savings, Efficiency and Sufficiency; Heat Pump; Social Aspects of Climate Change;

A creative group task building climate-neutral future communities with LEGO. The participant exploring how to place houses, community house, green areas, roads, gardens, windmills and solar cells. Some are building complicated some simpler way. Important element is the discussions. Prior to the Lego buidling participants receive an introduction on the 8 reasons why to make a renewable energy Community and 6 steps how to make them, as well as examples of eco-communities..
- Use pages in the Handbook: #21-22 and Facilitator Material # 67-72.
- Relevant Fact sheets: Energy Communities.

Each group is getting a list of country names, and ranking them by their amount of CO2 emissions. Evt. The groups can rank the countries by CO2 emission by person. or just discuss the difference. The method is opening discussion on historical responsibility and fairness.
- Use pages in the Handbook: #24-25 and Facilitator Material # 73-74.
- Relevant Fact Sheets: Social Aspects of Climate Change.

A collaborative mapping exercise linking energy use, industry and social impacts, showing how global systems drive emissions and inequality.
- Use pages in the Handbook: #26-28 and Facilitator Material # 75-80.
- Relevant Fact Sheets: Social aspects of Climate Change

A case-based activity examining conflicts shaped by climate pressures, prompting discussion on peace, resources and justice.
Eeach team gets a conflict card, which they discusses and agree answering to the questions on the sheet. Afterwards the group presents the case to the others, and their conclusions.

Module 4 - Active Citizenship

The Project "Energy Literacy for Youth" [ELY] is capacity building for youth education that supports the skills and abilities of young people to become active citizens in the fields of climate change and renewable energy. Energy literacy empowers individuals and communities to make informed decisions regarding energy use, promoting sustainability, and mitigating climate change. The target groups are young people (18-25 years old), educators and trainers, policy makers and general public. There will be special focus on inclusivity, and diversity addressing the knowledge gaps among youth in marginalised groups with different socio-cultural backgrounds, disabilities, etc. The ELY project is financially supported by the EU ERASMUS+ program.

Project partners: Open Plan Foundation (Poland, project lead), MigLAB (Germany), YEE - Youth and Environment Europe (Czech Republic), Dias Media Group (Cyprus), and INFORSE-Europe.

Project Area: The project is implemented in five countries - Poland, Czech Republic, Denmark, and Germany - and will culminate in a final conference in Brussels to share best practices, outcomes, and strategies for broader adoption of the curriculum.
