Welcome to POP.ED

Empowering youth to think critically, embrace diversity, and take active roles in shaping a better future.

ABOUT THE PROJECT

POP.ED is an international project that aims to innovate youth work by combining Global Citizenship Education (GCE) with pop culture tools. The project focuses on making civic education more engaging, inclusive, and accessible for young people across Europe.

Through this approach, the project strengthens critical thinking, intercultural understanding, and democratic participation. It also raises awareness about global challenges and interconnections, empowering young people to become active and responsible citizens.

OBJECTIVES

This project aims to make Global Citizenship Education more relevant, engaging, and accessible for young people by combining it with pop culture and innovative youth work methods. It focuses on strengthening critical thinking, intercultural understanding, democratic participation, and awareness of global issues, while encouraging inclusive and co-creative involvement of young people. Through cross-border cooperation, the project will develop practical learning tools, a 10-unit curriculum, and an NFE Toolkit for youth workers, alongside training and pilot activities in partner countries. A key outcome will also be a multimedia Youth Manifesto, created with young people to amplify their voices, support advocacy, and strengthen dialogue with decision-makers.
