ESC: Library Makers: Transforming Spaces for Culture - Vol. 2

"Noi@Europe" is a youth association established on 2012 in Napoli by a group of young former trainees of the local Europe Direct Centre. The association's main goal is to support and promote the European citizenship and the international cooperation. The association is thought as a place where young people can share their ideas and opinions. Our aims are: - promoting the rights of young people and supporting young people, - promoting the values of the European Union, - raising the level of information of young people, - encouraging the development of youth social entrepreneurship, - promotion of human and civil rights, - encouraging the development of civil society. Furthermore during the last years we have carried out various informative campaigns, informative products, publications on various European themes. Just as example: on the occasion of the 60 years of the European Treaties ("60 l'Europa"); in occasion of the Erasmus Welcome Day (#NapoliWelcomesEurope); we have created different video on Erasmus+ Program and another video dedicated to Erasmus students present in the city of Naples, or the publication "Partire pEr Tornare". In 2016 we realized 6 Information podcasts called "3 minuti d'Europa": a series of informative podcasts dedicated to the opportunities of the European Union and to moments of European history/culture for citizenship. Made in collaboration with the association WebTribù are based on the products/services offered by CEICC-Europe Direct of the Municipality of Naples (Information and awareness, EVS, Publications, CEICC Library, newsletters, etc.), podcasts will be usable through the social channels and the EDIC website and transmitted by local webradio. Actually available on Youtube. The Association promotes the personal development of young people and of all Neapolitan area and its surroundings through informal/non-formal education. In fact, the association's activities have made a contribution in creating a positive idea of European Union and international cooperation among young people in Napoli. The Organization has become an equal partner in decision making in relation to the active citizenship and European Union topics. For these reasons the Organization is performing the following activities: - To provide information to young people including young people interested in development of civil society; - To organise language workshops to encourage multilingualism among young people; - To raise the quality of life of young people through organized seminars and conferences with Universities and high schools; - To motivate young people to become active citizenship through informal/non-formal activities; - To organise informal/non-formal education workshops to promote multiculturalism; - To provide support to Institutions, associations and other relevant stakeholders with the project's design and the preparation of all necessary documentation for applying to national and European programs.
