digital tools and apps for democratic participation, critical engagement in public life and social activism.

The training will result in the participants gaining new experiences, skills, and methods of youth activism
through social media, and improving the methods already in use. They will enrich their expertise in digital
storytelling and learn how to facilitate activities based on this method, from the process of creating stories
to the technology that makes it possible.

This one-day event will be organized during the official Youth Day in 2024. This event will be also a
contribution to other events that aim to ensure the engagement and participation of young people in society. It
will be a celebration of youth, power and unity, how young people can impact the world if they put their minds
to it.
