NATIONAL WORKSHOPS
Join the Journey and co-create the future of European democracy!
If you’re 18+ and living in an EU or candidate country, this call is for you! We’re looking for young people ready to reimagine the future of democracy in Europe through creativity, dialogue, and collaboration. Selected participants will have their travel and accommodation fully covered.
Each National Workshop will gather around 30 participants to work collaboratively on imagining democratic futures at local, national, and European levels. The format of the workshop has been carefully designed and tested during our Regional Workshops to make sure every voice counts and every idea connects during the experience.
Participants are expected to take part actively in group discussions, creative tasks, and reflection sessions. By joining, you will become part of a Europe-wide network of young people shaping new ways to think, deliberate, and act on democracy.
