V.E.G.A. – Visualizing European Goals through Arts 

The project aims to:

• Raising awareness among young people about European policies that address them, in particular, the European Youth Goals. 
• The creation by young people of five visual art pieces (comics, graffiti, photography, graphic and video art) as informative tools for their peers and the community. This way, young people can develop personal skills while simultaneously being active citizens.  

The project will engage in the following activities:

• An International Training for young people and youth workers on the EYG. 
• Exchanges of knowledge among young people about the EYG. 
• Local workshops about visual arts. 
• Creation of at least 5 informative artworks. 
• 5 local exhibitions for the artworks created in each country. 
• A virtual exhibition for all the art pieces created during the project. 

The project will yield the following results:

• Acquisition of knowledge and new skills for youth and youth workers through the practical application of non-formal educational methodologies. 
• Increased awareness of European policies for young people. 
• increased social awareness regarding young people, youth workers and their needs for stakeholders, institutions and local communities.
