About project
“Play to Participate – Participate to Play” – P2P is 24 months project focused on addressing the lack of mechanisms for participation and youth involvement. Project is implemented by a partnership composed by 10 partners based in 5 countries (Serbia, Italy, Malta, Portugal and Greece).
PROJECT IDEA
The project idea stems from the fact that the involvement of young citizens in social or civic activities represents an important challenge in the modern world; youth social and civic engagement is still far to be defined satisfactory. Youngsters’ participation to democratic processes is insufficient and the decisions and proposals taken from the governing bodies are used to have a top-down approach, “offering” and “proposing” solutions to youngsters without guaranteeing them an active role in the process.
PROJECT FOCUS
The main focus of the project is youth participation and decision making through sport youth representative bodies. Sport will be used as a vehicle to involve young people into youth empowerment programs. The goal is to go beyond sport and offer youngsters the opportunity to make their voices heard at all levels and also in sectors not strictly connected to sport, using their involvement in sport activities, channeling and using it as a tool to enhance their participation in social and democratic life.
MAIN AIM
The main aim of the project is to activate a stable and participatory system for thepromotion and dissemination of youth activities oriented towards political andsocial issues, using sport as a means to involve young people, empowering them andmaking them part of a decision making process.
Specific Objectives
Project will be implemented dividing the activities in six main working packages and related sub-actions. All steps will follow the logic flow of the Project and will ensure the highest possible impact.
