“Participatory Photography for Youth” was an international Youth Exchange for young people from Austria, Armenia, Italy, Belarus, Jordan, Turkey and Ukraine and took place in Lackenhof/Austria. The project was designed to explore the 11 Youth Goals through the medium of photography, with the aim to build a bridge across fields such as youth participation, digital media literacy and creativity. “Participatory Photography” offered an opportunity to young people to enlarge their knowledge in the sphere of photo shooting and use it as a tool for boosting awareness about topics that matter to them. Participants educated themselves in photography and photo editing techniques, digital storytelling, different tools for making attractive visual content via pictures, advertisement through social media, and practice these skills. At the same time, participants explored the 11 Youth goals and how these connect and impact the daily lives of young people in various contexts. The project was designed to create opportunities in non-formal learning and thus support personal, interpersonal and professional growth, stimulate a sense of active citizenship and help uncover the potential of individuals and the community. The main objectives and results of the project were: 1. Young people raised their awareness around the European Union, the 11 Youth Goals and youth participation through the medium of photography; 2. Participants upskilled their digital competencies through examination of photography techniques, modern digital tools and platforms; 3. Young people are encouraged to act as responsible, active citizens and strive for positive changes in their environments; 4. Young people and civil society organisations based in the European Union and neighboring Euromed and Eastern Partnership regions connected and fostered mutual understanding, social engagement, friendships and unity among them
