Objectives

By means of our YE, we achieved all our defined goals. We gather 50 youngsters from 5 countries (Sweden, Republic of North Macedonia, Italy, Portugal, Poland). Thanks to our project, participants had chance learning about practical and theoretical sides of democratic process, conflict management, coping with stereotypes, defining problems, finding solutions, and promoting peace. In this manner, they -analysed the current socio-political situation in both their countries and other ones -got both theoretical and practical knowledge about main concepts such as democracy, policy making, -discussed about current problems which young people face every day, and possible solutions for those problems -were informed about stereotypes and judgements about minorities, ethnic groups, LGBTQ+ members, migrated people in both their countries and in other ones. -discussed about the “youth perspective” for democratic and inclusive process in their countries -learn how to be more active in their societies by promoting human rights, tolerance, active citizenship, -improved their social and individual skills in a totally free and safe environment which had provided active and inclusive participation of participants. -discuss about possible ways for fostering and promoting both democracy – social inclusion and Erasmus+ program – our project.
