Geography of Civilizations

<< Objectives >>Our project, Geography of Civilizations seeks to promote intercultural understanding and strengthen a shared European identity among 72 young people (aged 18-25) and 18 youth leaders from Türkiye, France, and Italy, with 70% of youth from disadvantaged backgrounds. It aims to improve participants' cultural awareness, communication skills, and foster social inclusion and youth empowerment across borders.<< Implementation >>The project will organize 3 in-person mobilities in Türkiye, France, and Italy, engaging 72 youth and 18 youth leaders. Each mobility will include 4 days of workshops focused on historical geography and Mediterranean civilizations, complemented by cultural site visits. Additional activities include pre- and post-mobility training sessions, with a final dissemination event reaching 1,000 stakeholders from local communities and across Europe.<< Results >>The project will lead to increased cultural awareness and intercultural dialogue skills among 72 participants and 18 youth leaders, with 80% of participants expected to show improved understanding of European history and shared heritage. It will also strengthen 3 long-term partnerships, generate dissemination materials, and reach 5,000 people through social media, the Erasmus+ platform, and local events.
