Project Overview
This project aims to raise young people's awareness of cultural heritage, promote intercultural learning, and strengthen cooperation among participants from different countries. Within the scope of the project, young people from Turkey, North Macedonia, France, Spain, Romania, and Hungary will come together to share knowledge and experiences on the preservation, promotion, and sustainability of cultural heritage through non-formal learning methods.
The project targets young people aged 15-30 who are interested in cultural heritage and open to intercultural interaction. Participants are expected to develop their social engagement, active citizenship, communication, and digital skills, enabling them to communicate in basic English and actively participate in group work.
Through workshops, group activities, presentations, and cultural activities conducted throughout the project, participants will be able to both promote their own cultural values and experience elements of the cultural heritage of different countries. Using non-formal learning methods, the project aims to develop participants' teamwork, problem-solving, and intercultural communication skills.

Project Activities
Project activities are planned based on non-formal learning methods and prioritize the active participation of attendees. The project process aims to create interaction among participants by starting with introductory activities and icebreaker events. This will be followed by workshops on cultural heritage, country presentations, and group work. Through cultural evenings organized within the project, participants will have the opportunity to introduce their own cultures. The learning process will be supported by experiential learning activities and field visits, and project outputs will be made visible through digital content production. At the end of the project, evaluation sessions will be held to gather participant feedback, and dissemination activities will ensure that the project results reach a wider audience. Participants will actively contribute to the process by preparing presentations on their own country's cultural heritage before the project begins.
Outputs and Impact
The project aims to cultivate young individuals who have increased awareness of cultural heritage, gained experience in intercultural learning, and developed international communication skills. Through digital content and dissemination activities created during the project, the project outputs will reach a wider audience. Youthpass certificates awarded to participants will document the learning outcomes. Long-term impacts of the project include the development of active citizenship skills among young people, increased respect for cultural diversity, and the dissemination of awareness regarding the preservation of cultural heritage in local communities.
