Our project aims to empower youth organizations to become active policymakers, focusing on urban development through capacity building. By enhancing skills, promoting civic engagement, and fostering policy dialogue, we aim to create lasting networks and sustainable practices. The project will culminate in a model for good practices, including the creation of a pocket park, encouraging long-term impact on urban development and youth participation at local, national, and European levels.

We will implement a series of capacity-building activities, including residential and online training sessions, public forums, and policy dialogues. These will be complemented by digital dissemination campaigns and the creation of toolkits and reports to share best practices. Key activities include engaging youth organizations, policymakers, and community leaders to promote civic participation, policy integration, and the development of sustainable urban initiatives, such as community projects.

The project will result in enhanced capacities of youth organizations, the creation of toolkits and reports for replicating best practices, and increased civic engagement. Key outcomes include policy recommendations integrated into local and national frameworks, strengthened networks between organizations and policymakers, and the development of sustainable urban projects, like the pocket park, that serve as models for future initiatives in youth-led urban development.
