Szatyor Egyesület

Our mission is to inspire a sustainable and joyful lifestyle through community experiences and experiential learning, while connecting local initiatives with positive changes happening in the world. Our activities include offering learning and development opportunities for young people and adults to deepen environmental awareness. Through our experiential learning methods, participants acquire the principles of ecological thinking, competencies, and become capable of conveying this knowledge authentically and effectively to others. Our programs aim to support awareness-raising for sustainability and the building of environmentally conscious communities. As a volunteer hosting and sending organization, we implement domestic and international projects under the European Solidarity Corps program. We offer individual and group volunteer opportunities for young people and adults, both abroad and in Hungary. In addition, we provide professional support to civil organizations that are ready to host international volunteers, helping them to create quality volunteer programs. We believe that well-functioning small communities form the foundation of a sustainable society in the future. Through our community development activities, we support groups formed by individuals on their journey to becoming a community. We create training, developmental processes, and community self-awareness tools for this purpose. In our work, we use the principles of systems thinking and social permaculture to ensure that the small communities of the present and future are cooperative, conscious, and resilient. We believe that collaboration not only makes things easier but also takes us further. We implement projects in domestic and international partnerships – from deepening the connection with nature to the development of Hungarian communities across borders. Through adult education and youth Erasmus+ programs, there are opportunities to integrate European values, exchange experiences, and ensure continuous development thanks to organizational learning.
