The “CIVI EDU” project aims to revolutionize civic education, focusing on young Europeans and their role in shaping European citizenship. Through the creation of publicly accessible digital tools. The initiative aims to engage young people in innovative educational methods, encouraging active participation in social and political life. A key aspect is the exchange of experiences and best practices between European youth organizations, thereby improving the quality of youth work. The project focuses on the 18-30 age group, with an emphasis on those from disadvantaged areas, such as rural areas. The main goal of this project is to develop new methods, tools and approaches to civic education and fostering European citizenship among young people in Europe who show interest in current social and political issues, want to be actively involved and make decisive and independent choices, but don’t know how. The project will build on the New Narrative for Europe initiative and the 3-word basis of the EU Youth Strategy 2019-2027 – Engage, Connect, Empower.
