At a time of deep divisions within and sharp conflicts between societies, it seems very difficult to promote positive change. However, it is especially important now to work and advocate for positive change in the face of opposition. Many young people in the South Caucasus and Moldova are rising to this challenge. The EU4Dilaogue Change Makers Forum aims to support and connect these change makers. In its third edition, the Change Makers Forum focuses on impact-oriented community actions and engaging communication for change. The cross-regional forum in Finland, scheduled from April 26 to May 1, invites you to embark on a transformative journey as we delve into two crucial guiding questions that lie at the heart of positive change:
GUIDING QUESTION 1: How can I contribute to the change that I want to see in my community or in the relations to our neighbours?
The forum creates a space for sharing and listening, inviting participants to engage in dialogue about their vision for a positive future and how they can contribute individually and collectively. Together we will share experiences of working for positive change within communities and between societies. This enables us to gain a better understanding of the specific and collective challenges facing young change makers in the region. From participatory design to inclusive decision-making processes, discover how collective wisdom can shape projects that address genuine community needs.
GUIDING QUESTION 2: How can I design and execute engaging and targeted communication to multiply the impact of our community actions?
For changemakers, the imperative extends beyond the mere execution of impactful work; it demands compelling and targeted communication. The forum will enable knowledge sharing and capacity building on impact-oriented communication for change makers. We will delve into the art of crafting messages that resonate with specific target groups. The Forum will also offer practical training for how to use mobile technology in capturing emotional moments with your own mobile device and turn them into relevant stories through a simple editing process.
We invite young change makers (aged 18-30) from the South Caucasus and Moldova who are working towards positive change withing their communities and positive relations between societies to apply until February 1st. https://www.kas.de/documents/d/suedkaukasus/eu4dialogue-call4participants-changemakers-fourm-iii?download=true
