The objectives of the "Graines d'épis +" project were to enable young people, already possessing potential for positive experiences within the framework of civic projects and European exchanges, to transmit, lead, and support groups of other young people in the area in order to: - give them the opportunity to engage in local and European civic actions; - introduce them to local, regional, national, and European institutions through concrete micro-projects to be developed, proposed to stakeholders, and tested with the community; - strengthen their sense of belonging to the European Union, as well as their sense of belonging to the local area, by "demystifying" institutions and mechanisms; - open them up to others and the world, and broaden their perspectives.
