The YoMEM project
wants to affirm a vision of memory not as a mere nostalgic memory of a past,
but as a tool aimed to enhance awareness of who we are, as individuals and as a
community, in order to recover the sense of a better and possible future. The
project also wants to support the important role that young people can play in
this profound cultural action.
To this end, the project will create tools and
methodologies aimed at developing a greater awareness of young Europeans of
different ages and social backgrounds, about European identity and values. The
aim of these tools and educational activities is to make young people become
"messengers" of the positive values on which Europe was founded: democracy,
intercultural dialogue, social justice.
In practice, the main results that
will be finalized during the YoMEM project and its
completion are:
-
IO1 YOMEM
workshops focused on narration and sharing personal experiences related to
Europe
-
IO2 YOMEM
cooperative storytelling activities at a distance – young people will
cooperate through remote narration methods to create narratives related to the
different themes of the project.
-

will be done through video formats that can easily be used by youth.
-
