Project Overview
In an era of rapid digital transformation and complex information warfare, young people face unprecedented challenges—ranging from sophisticated disinformation and propaganda to psychological pressure in online spaces. Funded by the Erasmus+ Programme (KA2), this project brings together five leading European organisations to establish an innovative Digital Resilience Hub.
Our mission focuses on supporting teenagers, particularly displaced Ukrainian youth and other vulnerable groups, by equipping them with critical thinking skills, emotional intelligence, and the tools for safe, responsible communication in the digital sphere.
Our Core Objectives
- Enhancing Digital Literacy: Providing youth with the practical tools needed to identify fake news, propaganda, and online manipulation.
- Fostering Psychological Resilience: Supporting the mental health of teenagers in the digital age through self-regulation and emotional resilience training.
- Empowering Youth Workers: Developing modern, trauma-informed methodologies for professionals working with youth in crisis or high-pressure environments.
- Building an Inclusive Digital Hub: Creating a multilingual, accessible platform featuring educational content based on real-life peer narratives.
Key Project Results (Intellectual Outputs)
- Peer-to-Peer Video Narratives (36 Videos): A series of authentic videos produced using the “peer-to-peer” method, where young people share their personal experiences of overcoming digital challenges and disinformation.
- The Digital Lab: An interactive online platform containing toolkits, practical exercises, and educational modules designed for both youth and youth work practitioners.
- Methodological Guidelines: Comprehensive resources for educators on implementing non-formal education techniques to boost media resilience in a transnational context.
