Location: Targoviste Dambovita, Romania

This training course is designed for youth workers who want to use art as a powerful tool to strengthen democratic participation, active citizenship, and inclusion among young people.

Participants will take part in hands-on workshops exploring art-based methods such as painting, crafting, photography, and other creative techniques that can foster dialogue, critical thinking, and youth engagement. You will experiment with non-formal education approaches, discover practical tools inspired by the “EU for YOUth” methodology, and learn how to transform democratic values, European identity, and EU Youth Goals into meaningful, participatory activities. Through group work, simulations, creative exercises, and peer learning, you’ll test artistic methods, reflect on inclusion strategies, and strengthen your confidence in designing impactful youth activities focused on democracy and civic participation.

If you want to gain concrete creative tools, practical experience, and the skills to inspire young people to actively shape the democratic future of Europe, this training course is for you!
