The project aimed to enhance the understanding and sensitivity of young people towards human rights, democracy, and discrimination, particularly in the context of combating Antigypsyism. Through our activities, we elevated awareness among both Roma and non-Roma youth, achieving our aim of promoting informed and active citizenship. In this direction, we set the objectives as: - To foster a comprehensive approach and understanding on the issue of Human rights education in youth work with marginalized youth and their effective involvement and par ticipation in local, national and international programmes - To strengthen cooperation and relations between Roma and non-Roma youth and 8 youth and pro-youth organizations in order to strengthen the conceptual understanding for intercultural dialogue, human rights, youth empowerment and mobilization, as well democracy and active citizenship and to establish a support system for enhancing Roma and non- Roma youth capacities and developing new projects within the Erasmus plus Programme, thus promoting non-formal education and practical life learning among various youth from Europe - To discover and exchange information on particular Human Rights situations in 8 European countries - To increase the participation of youth with fewer opportunities in European Educational programmes and mobilities; - To increase the knowledge of the 32 participants in the field of Human Rights and Human Rights Education, including practical knowledge about activities and methods that promote inclusion and participation of youth with fewer opportunities By implementing this project, we wanted to engage young leaders, especially Roma and marginalized youth to promote and work through non formal education with their peers about democracy, human rights, right to access free public information, the right to vote and freedom of choice, the right to ask questions in their municipalities and to raise their voice for their rights as citizen.
