Youth-Rec
Creative Methods for Youth Workers
Youth-Rec aims to counter the declining engagement, decreasing political participation, and lack of trust in democratic structures among young people.
In this context, youth workers will be introduced to specific creative methods (storytelling, filmmaking, and graphic design) that they can integrate into their work with young people. Storytelling, film, and graphic design are seen and used as opportunities to empower young people to express their opinions creatively and share them with a broader audience.
PROJEcT Goals
- Enhancing and promoting participatory skills among youth workers and youth organizations.
- Motivating young people to express their dissatisfaction through creative and constructive engagement.
- Bringing together young people from seven European countries to foster cross-border solidarity and empathy.
- Implementing and promoting campaigns that raise awareness of the challenges faced by European youth.
Target Groups
- Young people between the ages of 16 and 20.
- Young people who are or have been socio-economically disadvantaged.
- Youth workers and people who work with young people.
- Youth organizations.
