"Context: The project NAEC was designed as part of a 3 years lasting program called Generation Europe (GenE). It was based on the following observation from the GenE Network: The youth with fewer opportunities tend to describe themselves as non-political and were comparatively hard to motivate to get involved in projects handling political content. However it was also noticed that they could identify and engage more easily in political topics when the projects were handling an issue affecting them personally or their direct environment. objectives: Taking in consideration the above mentioned statements NAEC followed 3 main objectives: 1. Connecting the youth work organisation with youth work policy makers (on a national and European level) in order to implement and support strategies to make political democratic education more accessible for young people with fewer opportunities. 2. Supporting organisations who want to implement AEC in their project by developing new methods as well as adapting existing methods to make it more approachable and accessible for young people with fewer opportunities. 3. Disseminate the created methods in making them available to organisations outside of the project and therefore create a wider network of youth work organisations that want to address the topic of AEC and make it accessible to diverse target groups. participants: NAEC addresses professionals in youth work as well as representatives from youth politics at a national level as well as at a European level.Activities:Guidance Papers: The (associated) partners formed advocacy groups in their regions (North, East, South and Germany) and conducted research in order to assess the situation and the conditions for projects for AC with diverse target groups in their countries and regions. Based on this research discussions with local youth groups in order to identify their concrete needs and expectations in the matter of youth work were conducted. The results of this discussion were transported to and discussed with representatives of youth politics and (local) decision-makers. Based on the research and the insights from the dialogue with policy makers, the partners constituted the base of the Guidance Papers including recommendations for a course of action to address the problems in the field. In a second step, the partners met during regional transnational meetings and had the opportunity to exchange about their experience and common problems where insights about successful and unsuccessful strategies from other regions / countries were gathered. The result of the evaluation, exchange with youth work policy makers and lobby experience were gathered and formed the final version of the Guidance papers. ToolboxNAEC mobilised the GenE-Network To collect existing methods and develop new methods on the topic of AEC, civic and democratic education. Next, the existing methods were adjusted to fit the needs of non-formal education with diverse target groups in a European context. The (adapted) methods were then tested during the youth activities of GenE and subsequently evaluated and further developed. The final version of the methods were then gathered in the form of a document named “Method box”.Digital.DThe digital platform was implemented in cooperation with politik-digital e.V.. The platform was developed and improved throughout the entire project period. Due to the Corona crisis, the pedagogical goal of the tool had to be adapted. In fact, the necessity to give young people the opportunity to communicate and make decisions across the partnerships digitally became a necessity. At the same time, it became increasingly important to embed the tool in a new overall digital pedagogical concept. This concept was successfully implemented in 2020 under the name ""Let's take Action"". Additionally to the intellectual outcome transnational Meetings and Multiplier Events were organised. results/ impact: The project succeeded in reaching all objectives despite challenges along the way. Results thus are: strategies on the level of youth politics that support the implementation of international youth work projects on AEC; connection of practical yw and politicians; provide tools to make international AEC projects more accessible to diverse target groups and to connect the local and European level; improvement of the accessibility of international AEC projects for young people with fewer opportunities.Longer-term benefits: In order to implement the local strategies developed during the project in a sustainable way schools and vocational schools have been included in the process. The SP created a strong and sustainable partnership that is motivated and enabled to work on the topic of AEC in the future. Furthermore it established connections with policy makers on different levels to continue to improve the conditions for the youth work."
