Objectives

The project aims to empower young people from Germany and Armenia to actively engage with urban and societal challenges and to make their perspectives visible in public discourse by combining youth participation, journalism, and intercultural exchange. Through hands-on journalistic work and collaboration in international teams, participants develop media, civic, and intercultural competences, experience self-efficacy, and gain a deeper understanding of democratic processes and youth participation. At the same time, the project fosters intercultural dialogue and long-term cooperation between young people from different contexts, while raising awareness among a wider youth audience through published journalistic outputs, thereby contributing to inclusive, youth-led public debate in line with the objectives of Erasmus+ Youth Participation activities.
