Ecoprint in Nature

The primary purpose of this project is to create and promote learning opportunities of ECO-PRINT for unemployed women with fewer opportunities. In addition to this purpose, diversify textile products in these ecologically less polluted geographies and ensure that they are offered to the home economy by these women in the EU. Cooperation between the countries of Türkiye, North Macedonia, and Italy with the sharing of endemic natural plants is among the primary project objectives to create innovative fabric products from the partner countries. Natural fabric products can be varied in the partner countries, mostly cotton, silk, denim, flannel, hemp, linen, velvet, and wool can be found to print ecologically on fabrics with different colours and forms. The colours and forms by ECO-PRINT are transferred from the plant parts such as flowers, leaves, stems, barks, roots, underground shoots, twigs, and extracts prepared from these materials.

Partners:
- Youth on Board, North Macedonia
-  Warsaw University of Life Sciences, Poland

Results:
- Training of unemployed women in north Macedonia and Poland using ECOPRIN products

Objectives:
- This project will help unemployed and disadvantaged women to display their art in exhibition places and will have more members to make some more ecological prints from plants. In the case of cultural awareness, the organizations will exchange their own culture with another.
- The involved organizations will have the opportunity to learn about ECO_PRINT techniques and implement them for their targeted members in their organizations. There will be more attractive and innovative education and training with its implementation for local communities that have geographical and socio-economic disparities as well.
- This project will increase the quality of work and practices of the organizations and institutions involved.
- Empower women in careers, entrepreneurship, digital skills, and financial literacy through education and ensure their participation in social and economic life;
