The scope of the VISYON project is to create a network of organizations in 8 European countries, that will give young Europeans the necessary tools and a forum to talk about their needs and desires, voice their concerns and challenges, and share their stories, so as to encourage a vivid discussion about the efficacy of current European policies in serving the needs of the European youth and ways for their improvement.

The first part of the project will be dedicated to connect, engage and empower young people at a local level. Each partner will organize local workshops and debates, during which the participants (groups of 8-10 young people) will get familiarized with the 11 Youth Goals and the relevant policies, will be trained to represent themselves and their opinions in front of institutions and any kind of public, will learn how to develop and publicize content responsibly avoiding the risk of misinformation and biased presentations and will encourage peers from their local community to also raise their voices and share their stories and views publicly. Then, each group will be asked to select 1 topic of interest (corresponding to one of the 11 European Youth Goals), around which they will work on a script for a short movie. Eleven scripts will be finalized and during an International Youth Mobility and then will be turned into short movies with the support of a professional production agency, forming together the first European series integrally written and realized by young people.
Through the project’s communication and reach-out activities the collected youth recommendations according to the project’s results will be presented at the level of local authorities, as well as representatives of the European Commission.
