What is the WHY project?

WHY (We Hear You) is an Erasmus++ project that aims to provide a basis for an improved culture among professionals, as well as structures that will support democratic dialogue and youth involvement, promoting civic participation, creating participatory mechanisms, and thereby preventing marginalisation and its negative effects on individuals and society.

One of the objectives of the WHY project is to develop training tools for youth professionals
