Objectives

General objective: To promote an active, supportive and critical European global citizenship, committed to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Human Rights, Gender Equality and Environmental Sustainability. -Specific objective: Contribute to the social transformation of critical and supportive young people, for their active, autonomous and empowered participation in society, through training and awareness raising through artistic tools. These objectives are in line with the priorities chosen to promote a more active and critical citizenship, with a capacity for initiative, seeking the inclusion of all people and fighting against inequalities.

Background

This project addressed both the needs of the youth to whom the youth workers of the participating entities dedicate their work, as well as the needs of these same educators. In the case of the former, the project focused especially on serving those coming from vulnerable environments and/or at risk of social exclusion, and was particularly dedicated to those who had artistic concerns and/or a motivation for art. Thus, the project proposed to apply the pedagogical and artistic expertise of the consortium of entities to accommodate the needs of these groups as holders of rights and responsibilities. This also boosts the work that both entities were already doing, reinforcing its quality and generating new tools that allow working on both critical actions and artistic expressions, while deepening knowledge about the 2030 agenda.
