Objectives

Through the KOGAI project, we want to create an educational, intercultural and participatory space enabling young people from peripheral and working-class areas to become actors in their own stories, civic engagement and personal and collective journeys. From a youth work perspective, the project aims to use documentary creation, European mobility and non-formal education as levers for empowerment, self-confidence and democratic participation. The idea is to use young people's experiences as a starting point to enable them to develop a critical view of their social, media and political environment and to strengthen their ability to express themselves in the public sphere. The main objectives of the project are as follows: - To promote inclusion and equal opportunities by making European mobility accessible to young people with fewer opportunities, who are often excluded from international programmes; - To strengthen young people's participation in democratic life by developing their critical thinking, their understanding of the European project and their sense of belonging to a European community based on solidarity; - To support the personal, social and professional development of participants through the acquisition of transferable skills (confidence, communication, teamwork, autonomy, digital skills); - To develop their power to act and their narrative capacity by giving them the means to produce their own media content and deconstruct stereotypes; - Create a safe, supportive and horizontal environment that promotes learning through experience, mutual aid and intercultural cooperation; - Encourage young people's long-term engagement in their local areas and at European level by supporting them in their role as ambassadors and intermediaries among their peers. The project is part of a popular education and participatory youth work approach, where young people are fully involved in the design, implementation, evaluation and promotion of activities.
