How can we embrace an eco-sustainable lifestyle? And why is it important to provide to young generations an environmental education? My experience as a volunteer at the CJD Ökohaus Markkleeberg.

When you decide to leave out as european volunteer, you probably don't imagine to build part of your future in your host country. However, many things can happen during two months or even one year. You can start loving the country where you are enough to decide to stay, you can find the right person for you or a job which makes happy and decide to go back your host country.This is what happened to L.L., an Italian and ex European service volunteer. As he said during the interview, he arrived in Hungary for the first time to work for 12 months with a youth organization. After two years of break from Hungary, he came back again as employee in a company and then he started to work as teacher. All those experiences made him understand that he wasn't looking for a job in a company. Despite some disadvantages, such as a low salary, he clearly prefers to work as teacher. In the interview, we explored advantages and disadvantages of being a teacher in Hungary.

Technology is advancing ever faster, and the experience of the pandemic has taught us that it is better to refrain from making predictions even a couple of months in advance. But at the same time, such striking new trends are emerging that it is impossible to refrain from making predictions. We explore scenarios for education: how will the ideal age for learning change, what will happen to the state's monopoly on education, and what kind of teachers will the future hold?

Brought awareness onto our limits as a civilization in a finite planet, we go forward to the evolution of our global society.

I am happy to congratulate all of us with the beginning of New Year, 2021! Most people have a lot of positive hopes for this year and look forward to have it more full of new experience connected with the life we had before 2020. But is it exactly so? While reading the posts in FB I came across a very interesting thought about what will drive 2021 and further years. Personally I find it very appealing as it gives all of us food for thought and room for development.

I made a friend a few years ago in Sri Lanka. I was telling a group of Mexicans I had just met, how the other day we were being locked into a shop until we bought something, and how afterwards, our driver brought us to a casino for some daylight gambling, while we were supposed to watch some ladies dance. The situation was highly inappropriate but frankly hilarious if one considers the absurd imagery of a Western lifestyle my driver had. That’s when my friend turned to me as he had overheard my story and said that he wanted to become my new driver.

With COVID-19 outbreak came not only end of loads of opportunities, but also the door was opened to the new ones. And you are the lucky one if you have noticed them and started to use. Personally I prefer to be among those who are quick enough to see the opportunity and use it! When the idea of transformation of the real project into digital one came to my mind, I shared it with my colleagues and I was super lucky to be supported in its implementation. Since that moment almost every month I was involved in online seminars or workcamps which led to my expertise in this field. In this article I would like to share with you how I did my online campleading in a harmonious team with outstanding participants.

Dear friends, as the majority of you may be interested in the topic of education, I decided to figure out how not to get lost among the educational opportunities and use them to the maximum. As I am Ukrainian, the main point will be for Ukrainians but will come in handy also for all of you. I have been an international student in Poland, so, this reportage will rely also on my own experience.

Now when panic is reducing, people are starting to think about the future: what will happen next? And thus far we can see many forecasts and speculations about the future of the economy, the medical forecasts, the influence of the lockdown on major events, on our day-to-day life.

You will be able to see some statistics on several factors connected to the digitalization of education, as well as there will be some open questions connected to the topic.
