Activism - a lifestyle
Start date: Feb 1, 2010,

"Activism - a lifestyle" is a 6-day international training course that will bring together 24 participants from 8 countries (Cyprus, Greece, Germany, Italy, Lithuania, Portugal, Romania and Turkey) in the village of Petrindu, Romania, to explore the topic of youth activism and ways to promote and enhance it. The main objective is to stimulate the participants' potential for action and improve their competences in empowering other youth to take an active role in their communities. By using interactive non-formal education methods, we plan to discover participants' individual motives for active participation and then extend this analysis to general reasons for youth to get involved and become active, as well as to ways of stimulating this process. Activities include the non-formal defining and discovery of the concept of European citizenship, debating types of activism and choosing the most suitable, exchanging and creating effective methods to activate youth, implementing a mini-project in the local commmunity and exploring the opportunities Youth in Action offers for youth to become active participants in their communities' lives.
