As we approach the end of 2023, it is time to sum up what has been done as part of the European Youth Capital 2023 project, including the youth grant programmes.
On 1 December at 6 p.m., we will meet at the Maki Cultural Lab – Branch of the “Bronowice” District Community Cultural Centre – to learn about the experiences related to the initiatives and see their outcomes. The event's programme will include presentations of the completed projects, exhibitions, socio-cultural animation activities and the première of Magdalena Kozik’s “The world is not black and white!” contemporary dance spectacle and the videoclip produced as part of the “Talents straight from Kośminek!” project by a group of children and young people affiliated with the Kośminek Base (both projects have been implemented under the Youth Inspires Districts programme).
The event provides an opportunity to meet the people involved in arts and social projects initiated by school communities; learn about measures addressed to persons with disabilities, socio-cultural animation projects, as well as projects strengthening young people's competencies and well-being and addressing the difficulties they are facing. We will listen about how young people shared their skills and passions when carrying out their initiatives. The event will also showcase four youth exhibitions.
Join us to talk about the Youth Inspires Districts and City Youth Activator programmes!
