YES Forum - Youth and European Social Work
Europe3E | Online Exhibition

Dear ###USER_first_name### ###USER_last_name###,

Youth work is all about inclusion, especially at the YES Forum. And although the past few years – even decades – have shown political education is more urgent than ever, it is an area in which inclusion remains a challenge. This is the main concern behind the “Europe through young Eyes: Exchange, Explore, Exhibit” project.

Together with young people from five different European countries and over the course of two years, the Europe3E project experimented innovative methods to open political education to all youth.

We are very proud of the great work being done in this project!

What is Europe3E?

“Europe through young Eyes: Exchange, Explore, Exhibit” project experimented innovative methods to open political education to all youth. That is, ways to help young people engaging in the public debate, regardless of their background.

With the involvement of youth workers and young people from different EU countries, Europe3E especially explored the benefits of combining two youth work approaches:

  • Creativity as an obstacle-free channel for youth expression: EU politics, through the Photovoice method!
  • Accessible & Inclusive Political Education through games: Political simulation of the European Parliament with young people to better fit their specific needs.

Europe3E Photovoice: our Online Exhibition

Photovoice is a method of reflection and reporting that gets messages across by using photographs. It helps everybody, regardless of their knowledge and skills on any topic, to express themselves by relying on their creativity, and harnessing it through a step-by-step method.

Participants take pictures: they use a camera to answer a research question, combining pictures with their own individual stories. They formulate answers from their own perspective. They discuss the messages they want to present and based on that the group makes a final selection of pictures representing the groups opinion and answer to the research questions. In this way the results – the pictures – of Photovoice are not one individual’s story, but rather a group’s message.

Please find the results of the Europe3E Photovoice HERE
