Before the activity:
Between the fifth and sixth mobilities students prepared resolutions to be presented at the Model United Nations in Lisbon. For this purpose five committees were set up, each composed of six students, covering the themes of the five mobilities, namely Recycling, Renewables, Natural Heritage, Civic Initiatives and Circular Economy. Information was provided on how to write a MUN resolution at a formal level and shared documents managed by Portuguese students were created. Each partner school assigned five participating students a committee to create a formal resolution by theme and city. As a final task each committee created a joint resolution and a short speech on the theme, which were presented, debated and voted on at MUN Lisboa.
During the activity:
- Lobbying with the other participants to adhere to the respective resolutions;
- Debating the proposals; adopting resolutions to be continued in plenary;
- Presentation of winning resolutions at a formal level to the school community, local authorities and stakeholders;
- Creation of a documentary about MUN Lisboa.

Student cleaning action:
Implementing the Acting Now for the Future program would only be complete if it had an experiential nature. Therefore, in every mobility among the primary objectives was the practical application of the good practices proposed by the participants. Accordingly, the cleaning of areas, aimed not only at intervention but also at the reduction and interconnection of theory with exercise so that young European citizens can document the awareness they must have in their contact with the surrounding area.
Dissemination:
The dissemination of the principles, work findings, deliverables, and proposals necessitated their direct and indirect communication to the school, the education and the broader community. To help in this matter, media, social media and the communication resources of the school community found the space for the expression of the young European citizens who vigorously claim a better environmental future.

Collaboration with local Authorities:
Young people's dynamism, energy and faith in a better future, as decided from the beginning when planning the "Acting Now for the Future" program, would be an empty frame if it were not systematically expressed as an official attitude of young European citizens. Thus, submitting a written letter with the requests to the Municipal local authorities was considered the appropriate way of expressing the participants' positions in the program. After all, the connection of the local community and its governing authorities with the active part of the young community would be nothing but the practical application of the claim for a hopeful environmental future. Here follow the Letters to the Mayors of each of the partners' cities, written in our native languages, with a common introduction created together.
