Erasmus+ Learning Mobility of Individuals
Youth Exchange „My Vote My Voice“
Bremen, Germany
Dates: 16th May –27th May 2019
Project description:
The project promotes the development of young people‘s knowledge of European citizenship and opportunities for participation in the life of the country through the activity in elections and helps youngsters understand their role as a part of the present and future of Europe.
We implemented the project during the European elections 23 – 26 May 2019 and raise awareness about the #EUelections2019 and the campaign „This time I am voting“. This time it‘s not enough to just hope for a better future: this time we all need to take responsibility for it. So this time we‘re not just asking you to vote, we‘re also asking you to help to persuade others to vote too. Because when everybody votes, everybody wins.
Objectives:
- To inform youngsters about political issues and the importance of active participation in elections
- To inform youngsters how national and European Parliament works and it’s main functions
- To inform youngsters how they can influence of the future of the country and Europe by active voting on elections in order to improve the quality of life in their countries
- To inform youngsters about the importance of wide spreading information about elections in local communities
