CLICA-Young CLImate CAmpaigners for the European Green Deal

CLICA creates hybrid spaces (online & offline) that facilitate systematic co-creation and dialogue between youth, scientists, multidisciplinary creatives and policymakers, in order to generate solutions that increase the embedding of the European Green Deal (EGD) amongst youth communities that despite being at the forefront of the climate change crisis, they remain marginalized with their voices rarely heard at local and European levels. CLICA promotes informal learning and contributes to its role in developing young Europeans as agents of change. Youth will utilize artivism -merging of art and activism- as means of civic expression and political communication both with peers and policymakers in order to structure and communicate their ideas on how the EGD can impact their lives for the better.

The project leverages artivism (art + activism) to promote youth engagement via different media and modes of expression. It
aims to:

• spur innovation for addressing disadvantaged youth and provides new opportunities for their participation in democratic
  life;
• create a cooperative platform for civic engagement that links disadvantaged youth with artists and scientists;
• adopt an impact-based approach focused on youth and support them to explore how the whole learning path makes sense
  to them.
