What was the goal of the project?
Looking for Nemo is an Erasmus+ training course designed to empower youth workers to address the growing challenge of youth exclusion and its connection to radicalization, equipping them with inclusive non-formal education tools that foster a sense of belonging, identity, and positive self-expression among young people at risk of social vulnerability; by utilizing creative and participatory methodologies, the project focuses on identifying early signs of alienation, building intercultural empathy, and enhancing facilitation skills to mediate conflict and establish safe spaces for open dialogue and critical thinking, reinforcing the principle that inclusion is an active daily practice while promoting European cooperation and peer exchange to develop follow-up projects aimed at empowering marginalized youth.
