The ReCAP project aims to support the active involvement and civic participation of youth, through non-formal learning activities and the use of specific artistic and cultural tools, with a special emphasis on young people with fewer opportunities (NEETs, people with a migrant background, minorities, youths from the LGBTIAQ+ community, girls). With the pandemic, they have been further marginalised from the socialisation places, so it is necessary to allow young people to express their feelings and challenges in the public space. During the Project Result 3 of ReCAP Project interactive workshops are held where creative and artistic tools are implemented.
| Duration (hours) | 16 hours in total (8 workshops) |
