Unleash Your Potential Through Co-Creation

Learn to visualize your dreams and ideas and realize them in co-creation with your action team. By applying proven principles and processes you can effectively work together to reach a common goal.

Imagine to find other engaged students in your class, your school or university to take action and have a positive impact.

What are Action Teams?

Action teams come together to get things done – in schools, universities and workplaces. They learn from each other and develop stories and visions of sustainable lifestyles. They know that in a team they are more creative and effective than alone.

They are convinced that together they can change the course of history – for the best of our planet. They train to communicate across generations. With the AND – BUT – THEREFORE storytelling tools they learn to ask, understand and take action in one go.

Action team principles

Action teams are built on basic principles:

  • Respect

    The respect for other perspectives and perceptions – because we are all different.

  • Unity

    The unity of thinking, feeling and acting – because they are connected and influence each other.

  • Accountability

    Take responsibility for actions and decisions.

  • Integration

    The integration of contradictions and tensions – because they are part of life and can be used to develop creative solutions and new perspectives.

The Rules of natural justice - because everything has a right to exist.

The LRSL Actionteam4future

The LRSL_Actionteam4future was formed on March 3, 2022, at Lycée Robert-Schuman in Luxembourg, with Youth4Planet’s unwavering support. Six motivated students embraced the slogan, “Problems cannot be solved with the same mindset that created them,” taking sustainability into their hands.

They created impactful videos, engaged in discussions, and collaborated with experts. Notably, they participated in an event with ministries, scientists, activists, and the President of Youth4Planet.

Using Instagram (@lrsl_actionteam4future on instagram), they spread positivity and inspire others to join.

Their ultimate goal: elevate activism, encourage more action teams, and drive change for a sustainable future.

Join the movement! Reach out to LRSL_Actionteam4future (E-mail: lrsl_actionteam4future@posteo.lu) or contact Youth4planet.

7 Rules

The secret of successful action teams

1

Clarity of the goal

The common goal must be clearly and unambiguously formulated so that all group members know what is expected of them and what results should be achieved.

2

Common commitment

All group members must commit to achieving the common goal and be willing to work on it together.

3

Roles and responsibilities

It is important that group members know and understand their roles and responsibilities so that they can work together effectively.

4

Open communication

Open and honest communication within the group is crucial to avoid misunderstandings and address problems at an early stage.

5

Teamwork and collaboration

Each group member should be willing to work with others to achieve the common goal. This requires a cooperative attitude and the willingness to take advantage of the strengths of others and compensate for weaknesses.

6

Time management

The group should create a realistic schedule to ensure that the goal can be achieved within the specified time frame.

7

Feedback and reflection

Regular feedback and reflection processes within the group can help improve cooperation and ensure that the common goal is achieved.

This show the cooperation practice of a team:

  • Find common topic
  • Agree on value basis
  • Accept differences
  • Define roles
  • Pursuing co-creative goals
  • Being open for new things
  • Find topic
  • Research facts
  • Develop a research question
  • Decide to take responsibility
    for your topic
  • Find Group Rules

  • Respect others

  • Develop trust

  • Solve conflicts

  • Become your own „Chairperson”
