ΠΕΡΙΓΡΑΦΗ ΠΡΟΓΡΑΜΜΑΤΟΣ

The project will be an opportunity for the exchange of ideas and best practices among social workers and youth in order to raise awareness on urban social issues and to stimulate active participation of youth in the civic society. Multi-activity is aiming to strengthen civic competences of youth through Non Formal Education methods.

Due to the social media invasion, the urban centers are losing their characteristics. The city center doesn't seem to be anymore the beating heart of the city, and this causes serious consequences at economic and social level.

This fact is related to other urban problems that are spreading more and more:

- city fragmentation: the new meeting points are the big shopping centers (malls), which appears as social melting pot and meeting point of youngsters;

- social exclusion of people who live at the peripheral areas or slums provoking a sense of frustration and isolation;

- young deviance: city center sites and parks as a meeting point for fights among gangs from neighboring areas, vandals or pick pocketing;

- state of abandonment and decay of the historical city center and closure of traditional shops which are losing their attractiveness;

- abuse of the car as a means of transportation, lack of cycling lanes, pedestrian zones, and, as a result, lack of respect for pedestrians, for the environment and for people with disabilities.
