Experimentáculo has always want to strengthen its role within the Setúbal community and, to that end, since 2006 it has worked in partnership with the various stakeholders across the city. One of these partners is the municipality’s schools, in a collaboration that also extends to other schools in the district, such as Instituto Piaget in Almada and Escola Profissional da Moita, among others. Through this network-based work with schools in Setúbal, Experimentáculo develops a range of activities and projects: it hosts students in curricular internships; provides training activities for teaching staff; and promotes European mobility projects under the Erasmus+ programme, enabling young students to acquire skills and personal empowerment. One of Experimentáculo’s main partners in this area is Escola Profissional Cristóvão Colombo (EPCC). This close relationship is mainly due to two factors: first, it began many years ago, specifically in 2013, and has since evolved into an increasingly strong and close partnership; and second, because of geographical proximity, as both EPCC and Experimentáculo are based in the same parish of the city of Setúbal, ultimately serving the same target audience as direct beneficiaries. EPCC is a small vocational school, currently with around 300 students, but it carries out highly important community-based work with its students, their families, and the wider community. The school community is characterised by young people facing significant social, economic, and educational challenges, many of whom are at risk of school dropout and find in vocational education a support network that often not only complements family support, but in some cases even replaces it. Every year, Experimentáculo includes several EPCC students in its Erasmus+ projects, both in Portugal and especially abroad. This provides these young people with an opportunity to acquire new personal and professional skills, preparing them more effectively for the labour market, while also fostering personal growth, developing life soft skills, promoting European values such as tolerance, equality, and democracy, and encouraging their multicultural awareness. In many cases, this is the first time these young people have ever left the country, making it an experience with a profound social and cultural impact. Sometimes, some of them may never again have the opportunity to travel abroad or even fly on an airplane. This relationship is therefore extremely important both for Experimentáculo and for EPCC, and one that we value deeply. It was in this spirit that the “Democracy Wins” project emerged. Since EPCC’s student community is particularly young, mostly composed of students under the age of 18, many of them must wait one or two years before being able to participate in a European youth exchange, as most of these projects are aimed at participants over 18 years old. In other cases, parents or guardians may also raise concerns or obstacles regarding their participation. The “Democracy Wins” project therefore brought together a group of EPCC students who had just reached adulthood and had never before participated in a European mobility programme, allowing them to have their first experience of this kind. Through this project, we wanted them to experience multiculturalism, engage with the European project, promote the values upon which the European Union was founded — tolerance, equality, multicultural dialogue, and democracy — and acquire personal and professional skills. In doing so, the project strengthened their understanding of citizenship, raised their awareness of the challenges faced by young people in Europe, and encouraged them to become agents of change among their peers upon returning to their daily lives. So that, in the end, we could all affirm that “Democracy Wins” always.
