ACTION contributes to strengthen successful approaches to youth participation and digital youth work

We are glad to share some further successes of ACTIon, an Erasmus+ project, with our participation, that finalised its work in January 2024.

ACTIon’s project partner team from five European countries participated in a digital focus group organised by the RAY DIGI research project and contributed with expertise and learnings from three years (digital) youth participation and trainings on topics of digital competence, media and health literacy and civic education in Bulgaria, Greece, North Macedonia and Germany. The final report Exploring Successful Approaches to Digital Youth Work has been now published, along with an executive summary.

Alongside the approach of ACTIon project “Promoting active citizenship through civic education and active online participation of youth role models” has been selected as a Good Practice example and published in the report: Empowering Participation in Democratic Life through Media and Information Literacy and Digital Participation von SALTO Participation & Information (SALTO PI), a resource centre of the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Commission.
