Training Course
11-18 June 2021 | Cercedilla, Madrid, Spain
The project aims to empower young people to become to take an active role in finding sustainable solutions to social problems by learning and cooperating with youth from different background across Europe and acting on local, international and digital level.
We find it also crucial nowadays to engage, connect and empower young people in the democratic processes at the local and European level. Young people are the future, thus we wish to encourage the participation of young people in peacebuilding and community processes. We believe that civil society and youth organizations play an important role in resolving existing tensions between communities and promoting peace, establishing dialogue between conflict sides, turning frustration and radical ideas into constructive actions by applying innovative experience and methods from different countries.
This project will be 1 year long (ends in March 2022), and it will have the following activities:
- Training course in Spain (June 2021)
- 2 online activities (of 2 days each)
- Local community meetings
- Guideline creation and publishing
