Description

The International Picnic – Green Edition is an outdoor gathering that combines cultural exchange with environmental awareness. Participants are invited to bring a traditional dish from their home country, their national flag, and reusable items such as bottles, cups, and cutlery to reduce waste. Hosted in Ancona’s beautiful Parco del Cardeto, the event features games, storytelling, music, and a nature-themed photo contest. By sharing food, stories, and experiences in a green space, the activity aims to strengthen the Erasmus community while promoting sustainable practices and a deeper connection with nature.
