๐ŸŒ Erasmus+ explained โ€” the complete beginner's guide to Europe's largest youth programme.Millions of young people have taken part in Erasmus+ since its launch, but many still don't fully understand what the programme actually includes, who it's for, or how to get involved. This in-depth guide breaks down everything: the different types of mobility, funding opportunities, eligibility criteria, and what you can realistically expect from participating. If you've ever wondered whether Erasmus+ is right for you, this guide gives you all the answers in one place. ๐Ÿ‘‰ https://youthworkshub.org/15096/


โ—๏ธWhat Is This Training About?

The main aim of the learning programme is to create a space for discovering innovations that have shaped the social and climate justice movements that push change in our society.


๐Ÿ˜๏ธ How Erasmus+ youth projects create lasting change in local communities. The impact of Erasmus+ goes far beyond the individuals who participate. Local communities, host organisations, and even entire neighbourhoods are shaped by the projects that take place within them. This article explores the broader social impact of Erasmus+ youth exchanges โ€” from building intercultural understanding to empowering grassroots organisations โ€” and makes a compelling case for why these projects matter beyond the personal level. ๐Ÿ‘‰ https://youthworkshub.org/3595/


โ„น๏ธ Description About The Opportunity

The main aim of the learning programme is to create a space for discovering innovations that have shaped the social and climate justice movements that push change in our society, as well as continue this process together by creating innovative activities related to activism and active citizenship, and trying them out. We will create a flashmob, performances, art installations, educational activities and multimedia products together, while learning from each other and building on historical examples of active citizenship from our local environments.

As an active participant of the programme, you take accountability for your learning process and experience. What you will learn and gain from the programme is a result of your own mindset, approach, attitude, previous experience and background knowledge, and willingness to learn. The facilitating team is here to support this process. The learning programme is highly collaborative and interactive, and you will be working in groups, individually, in pairs and will be able to exchange deas, knowledge and experience that you bring to the programme. We will focus on active citizenship in different countries, cultural contexts and communities, and aim to develop new ideas that we will then test out together on the streets of Ljubljana.

 

As part of the programme, you can apply as group leader or participant. We are still welcoming participants and group leaders from Latvia and Slovenia.

As all activities will take place in English, being able to express yourself in simple English is necessary to take part in the activities. The project activities include the joint creation and implementation of a flash mob in the city center of Ljubljana, which requires a level of public exposure and participation. As part of the flashmob, you can take different roles (filming, photography, reporting, preparing the space and materials, engaging in dialogue with the local community, performance,..). In total, there will be around 30 participants present in all parts of the programme.
