PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Our Youth Exchange is made for youngsters between 18 and 25 years old, coming from 5 different nations: Poland, Estonia, Belarus, Hungary and Portugal. The youngsters will be involved in a 6-days-project, about the digital sphere of our life.

Youngsters will have the chance to explore three different macro-areas and share their knowledge and experience regarding those. The “Good Web Citizen” project is, in fact, about exchanging different concepts, ideas and habits, with the final goal to improve our digital behaviours.

  • – The first area is the personal and psychological one, which touches different themes such as the hate speech phenomenon, online bullying dynamics, Internet Addiction Disorder etc..
  • – The second area is about privacy and copyright.
  • – The third area is about how the relations between people and nations are influenced by the web, analyzing phenomena like fake news, terrorism (coming from online sources) and web democracy.

The activities will be prepared and executed following the logic of non-formal education. All workshops and other activities will have the goal to stimulate the discussion and the sharing of personal opinions between the participants.

Moreover, we will organize different activities to explore the Polish culture, but also to share the cultures of the participants involved in the project.
