Their aim is to develop local projects that address various types of local problems. One of the objectives is to include and bring young people from a wide range of social contexts closer to political life, thereby strengthening their active role in society and showing them the impact that their actions and their contribution have on the reality around them.<\/p>\n<p>This happens through an education in politics that inspires curiosity and stimulates the critical spirit of all young people.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, it aims to give policymakers the opportunity to get closer to the youth world by allowing them to understand the needs of younger people. All this clearly makes it possible to analyze and tackle youth issues with a broad European dimension.<\/p>\n<p>Here is the link to the project website that Explorer is a partner of:<a href=\"https:\/\/generationeurope.org\/en\/\"> https:\/\/generationeurope.org\/en\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The project&#8217;s goals:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 To help young people understand concepts such as: democracy, human rights, national and European institutions, geopolitics, history of the European Union, promoting them not only at local level, but also at international level;<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 To facilitate the exchange of European values with people from other countries, in order to enable young people to act in their local situation.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Motivate young people to become more aware and critical.<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Deepen the meaning of concepts such as: active participation, civic and social awareness, inclusion;<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Reflect on racism &#8211; origin, stereotypes, fear of politics;<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Develop an active research with respect to the territorial problems experienced by the youth;<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Stimulate dialogue between young people and policy makers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><strong>ACTIVITIES OF THE PROJECT:<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>To achieve the above objectives, the project has established several action lines, each carried out by different actors depending on the area of improvement on which you work.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Creation of international partnerships<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The 42 countries forming the network are divided into 14 partnerships. In each partnership, three groups of young people from three European countries work together for three years. They are held for international youth meetings, each year in a different country, where youth exchanges are organized on the theme of active citizenship, civic responsibility and exchange of good practices.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Local activities<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is a three-year structured action; each phase has a duration of one year. Young people form local groups, identify the characteristics of their realities, develop local action plans and implement them with the help of the organization to which they belong.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Training for professionals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Good work with young people requires well-trained staff.
