Objectives

As a non-profit association, we offer free courses on European, climate and media-critical education. Using the peer approach and low-barrier, participatory, interactive methods, we enable young people to actively engage with political issues. The four-hour courses serve as a first point of contact with the topic and show how young adults can find their role as informed, committed Europeans. As part of the project funding, qualification measures are held for our trainers to prepare and train them for the courses. At the same time, we create space for voluntary work so that young people can gain experience of self-efficacy and become actively involved in the work of the association. Our vision is to strengthen the European idea, understanding of democracy and social participation of young people through critical engagement with political issues.
