๐ŸŒ Can youth work strengthen democracy in times of growing polarisation?

Across Europe, democratic values are increasingly under pressure, and public discourse is becoming more divided. At the same time, youth work finds itself at a crossroads. What is the ethical and political role of youth work today beyond supporting young people's individual life skills?

Join "All In", an international seminar in Mostar, Bosnia and Herzegovina, bringing together youth work practitioners who want to explore these questions, exchange experiences, and develop practical responses for their local communities.

During the seminar, participants will:
๐Ÿ”น explore current democratic trends and their impact on young people and youth work;;
๐Ÿ”น learn from inspiring practices and honestly reflect on what has and has not worked so far;
๐Ÿ”น strengthen their approaches to promoting democratic values through youth work;
๐Ÿ”น develop concrete follow-up actions for their local communities;
๐Ÿ”น become part of a supportive network of practitioners committed to democracy.

๐Ÿ“ The programme includes visits to local initiatives in Mostar, offering a unique opportunity to learn how communities with complex histories are building democratic futures through youth work and youth participation.

๐Ÿ‘ฅ The seminar is open to youth work practitioners who work directly with young people and are committed to strengthening democratic values in their local context.

๐Ÿ“… Apply now and join colleagues from across Europe in shaping the future of youth work and democracy! The link to the call for participants and application form is in the comments below. The application closes on 6 September.
