The “Paint your fEUture” project was conceived during the preparation phase of our first approved youth exchange, titled “Log In – Back to life.” During this phase, Michele, a volunteer from our association, along with Mihnea from Targu-Jiu, Romania, and Thiago from Setubal, Portugal, proposed the idea of a project focusing on young people's mental health. They aimed to explore new non-formal methodologies that place the human being and their authentic emotions back at the center—emotions that have been increasingly compromised by the overwhelming "hyperconnection to the internet and social media," which fosters dangerous phenomena such as cyberbullying, hate speech, and media illiteracy. The shared background of our volunteers, coming from rural and socially marginalized areas, connects their needs and experiences. Their motivation to address this issue stems from strong personal experiences, shared by these young people, who have either witnessed or experienced firsthand the challenges posed by constant social media presence. Our primary goal is to raise awareness among the participants about this issue, helping them recognize that the problem is real, even if disguised as a "search for sociality." In reality, it often reflects a desperate search for validation and acceptance, which leads to vulnerability and exposure to hate. For this project, Michele, Mihnea, and Thiago wanted to introduce an added value compared to the previous project, using visual art—specifically drawing, photography, and digital graphics—to convey messages of hope and inner peace. Visual art fosters concentration and mindfulness, offering a positive distraction from daily stressors, reducing exposure to virtual discrimination, and improving media literacy. The specific objectives of the project are: Raising awareness among young people about mental health, combating cyberbullying, hate speech, and media illiteracy; Promoting active citizenship; Strengthening participants' and local youth's soft skills, especially those with fewer opportunities, such as language, digital skills, project coordination, and awareness campaign promotion; Actively involving participants in follow-up activities within their local communities; Supporting youth work at both local and international levels, strengthening the network of participating organizations; Promoting social inclusion and solidarity values; Increasing European mobility opportunities, particularly for marginalized youth. The general objective of the project, in alignment with the Erasmus+ Programme's goals and the European Union Youth Strategy 2019-2027, is to support the educational and personal development of participants in non-formal education. This contributes to their growth and facilitates their social and civic engagement upon returning to their communities, encouraging them to act actively within the societies in which they live. Our project aligns with the specific objectives of the Erasmus+ Programme: Fostering intercultural dialogue, learning, and European identity; This non-formal educational process will occur in a multicultural context. Intercultural dialogue will also impact partner organizations, creating a network for future exchanges and projects. Developing young people's skills and attitudes; The project aims to equip participants with artistic skills, such as drawing, photography, and digital graphics, which they can use throughout their lives to adopt healthier lifestyles and reduce their reliance on mobile phones and social media. Strengthening European values and breaking down prejudices and stereotypes; The project promotes the social inclusion of marginalized youth, especially those addicted to social media, by fostering their well-being. By celebrating cultural and linguistic diversity, participants will also learn to recognize and combat discrimination. Raising awareness of socially relevant issues, stimulating societal engagement, and promoting active participation in democratic life.
