Bring together youth workers and youngsters from all over Europe and the neighbouring countries to the EU, to facilitate a meaningful dialogue around youth participation and empower youths to have their say in creating a positive change in their communities. The seminar will act as a platform for sharing successful methods among youth workers, educators, and young people to boost youth engagement in three key areas: environmental, social, and digital. It will feature thematic workshops, study visits, and a one-day summit.
100+ youth workers and stakeholders from 20+ different countries. Most of the participants that attended the event were from Romania, Italy, Spain, Slovakia, Poland, Bulgaria, France, Greece, Belgium, Ireland, Netherlands and Portugal.
Nonformal education methods based on active involvement of the participants: ice-breakers, energisers, workshops, case-studies, world cafes, debates and discussions. On top, 3 parallel study visits and workshops regarding the green, social and digital dimension
