The project aims to address one of the most pressing challenges facing young people today: their increased exposure to risks in the digital environment. Young people are among the most active users of social media, online platforms, and digital services, yet they are also particularly vulnerable to cyber threats such as phishing, identity theft, online fraud, data misuse, manipulation, and social engineering. Research and youth work practice show that many young people underestimate digital risks, overshare personal information, and lack practical strategies to protect themselves online. At the same time, cybercriminals increasingly use advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence, which makes digital threats more frequent, targeted, and difficult to recognise. This creates a clear need for preventive, youth-centred action in the field of cybersecurity. From the perspective of youth work practice, the main objective of the project is to empower young people to navigate the digital world in a safe, critical, and responsible way. The project seeks to strengthen young people’s digital resilience by combining cybersecurity awareness with critical thinking, ethical reflection, and active participation. Rather than focusing solely on technical knowledge, the project addresses young people’s everyday digital behaviour, supporting them to understand risks, question online content, and make informed decisions in their daily lives. A key objective is to increase young people’s awareness and practical skills related to cybersecurity. Through non-formal education methods, participants will learn how to recognise common cyber threats, understand how social engineering and online manipulation work, and apply concrete strategies to protect their personal data and digital identities. The learning process is participatory and experience-based, allowing young people to actively engage with real-life scenarios, simulations, and peer learning. Another important objective is to promote responsible digital citizenship. The project encourages young people to reflect on the ethical and social dimensions of digital life, including privacy, online responsibility, respectful communication, and the societal impact of digital technologies. By linking cybersecurity to values such as responsibility, solidarity, and informed participation, the project contributes to the creation of safer and more inclusive online environments, especially for young people from diverse and disadvantaged backgrounds. The project also aims to strengthen young people’s role as multipliers in their communities. Participants will be encouraged to share their knowledge and experiences with peers, family members, and local youth groups after the exchange. This multiplier approach supports active participation and empowers young people to take initiative by organising small awareness activities, discussions, or campaigns related to digital safety. International peer learning is a central element of the project. By bringing together young people from eight different countries, the youth exchange creates a space for intercultural dialogue and shared learning on cybersecurity challenges that affect young people across Europe and beyond. Participants will exchange perspectives on digital risks in different social and cultural contexts, fostering mutual understanding and a sense of shared responsibility. Finally, the project supports the holistic development of participants by strengthening transversal skills that are essential in youth work. Through teamwork, simulations, group discussions, and participant-led activities, young people will develop communication skills, critical thinking, problem-solving abilities, self-confidence, and leadership competences. These skills are crucial not only for protecting themselves in the digital environment, but also for active participation in society. All objectives will be achieved through non-formal education methods that are inclusive, participatory, and youth-centred. By using real-life examples, simulations, peer learning, and structured reflection, the project creates a safe learning environment where young people can build digital awareness, confidence, and the competences needed to protect themselves and others in the digital era.
