Youth participation sounds simple — but for many young people facing poverty or social barriers, it’s far from accessible. This Erasmus+ webinar dives deep into how socio-economic challenges shape democratic participation and what youth work can realistically do about it.

This is not just theory. You’ll explore real barriers, practical tools, and inclusive approaches that can directly improve how young people engage in decision-making processes. If you’re working in youth projects, policy, or education, this session gives you concrete insights you can apply immediately.
