"Pixels of Mind" youth exchange creates a space where an intercultural group of young people from Belgium, Greece, Portugal, Cyprus, and Germany can come together to address some of the most urgent challenges of their generation: the spread of disinformation, the anxiety surrounding Artificial Intelligence, and the rising prevalence of mental health issues among youth. The participants will work with innovative, non-formal education methods — debates, simulations, storytelling, digital workshops, and collaborative activities — that allow them to explore these issues in depth and design their own solutions. The project is rooted in the EU Youth Strategy 2019–2027, which highlights the importance of building resilience, strengthening participation in democratic life, and equipping young people with the competences to adapt to an increasingly digital society. By critically engaging with the media they consume, experimenting with AI tools such as ChatGPT and Gemini, and learning about accessible instruments for mental health support, participants will not only strengthen their digital and civic competences but also their personal resilience and social well-being. Our objectives are clear and youth work–oriented: - To enhance media literacy and critical thinking skills, enabling young people to identify and challenge disinformation. - To develop digital competences by experimenting with AI and exploring its ethical and societal impact. - To strengthen personal and social well-being, by providing safe spaces for open dialogue, mutual support, and strategies to cope with stress and isolation. - To foster intercultural communication and solidarity, ensuring participants experience the richness of diversity and learn to collaborate across cultural, social, and linguistic boundaries. - To build leadership, communication, and organisational skills through participant-led workshops and follow-up activities in their home communities. The young people engaged in this project will not only gain valuable competences documented in Youthpass but will also have the opportunity to transfer their learning into practice. Each national group will design and lead local follow-up workshops, reaching peers in their communities with the messages, tools, and creative outputs developed during the exchange. By placing young people at the centre of the process, this project empowers them to become multipliers of knowledge and ambassadors of healthy digital practices and mental well-being. The exchange thus becomes more than a mobility — it is a catalyst for intercultural dialogue, a laboratory for exploring the digital transformation of society, and a platform where youth can actively shape the future they want to live in.
