The project aims to equip young people with advocacy skills to influence policy-making at local and EU levels, enhance their civic participation, and promote better youthwork as a solution for societal problems. Through innovative training, lobbying activities, delegations and Social Media campaigns the project will motivate marginalized youth and NGO-s to become active participants in democratic life and processes and support change in their communities and manifest better youth work conditions

We will implement a series of activities, including research on needs, training on advocacy and international lobbying, and multiplier training on how to train youth to advocate on their local level. Additionally, participants will engage in social media advocacy training and implement lobbying visits at local and EU levels. The partnership also meets and evaluates the process continuously. The activities focus on developing NGO-s advocacy potential and enabling them to influence policy-making.

This project aims for several key outcomes: competent youth advocates and their sending organisations, and our network equipped with advocacy skills. Creation of advocacy training materials tailored for local and EU-level, and the successful implementation of youth-led lobbying actions, campaigns, strategies, and meetings. It will also foster a stronger network of youth organizations across Europe, better youth work structures and policies, and an increased youth participation in policy-making.
