How can we build a social Europe by cycling 6,000 km from Lisbon to Athens? The workshop stems from the experience of the Sunflowers European Tour, a journey-investigation undertaken by Utopia 2000 through 10 countries to document resilience and social innovation. Through an interactive approach, participants (aged 18-25) will experience the \u201cbicycle method\u201d: slow observation as a tool for reading the needs of the territory and discovering innovative solutions. Analysing real case studies encountered during the tour (from workplace inclusion in Spain to historical memory in the Balkans), the young people will work in groups to map the \u201cinvisible\u201d resources of their communities and design a micro-initiative with social impact, becoming protagonists of a Europe built from the bottom up.<\/p>\n
Educational objectives:
\n1. Understanding the Social Economy: Understanding how businesses can generate collective well-being in addition to profit, through concrete European examples.
\n2. Training the \u201cRecognising Eye\u201d: Learning the value of slowness and listening as tools for territorial investigation.
\n3. Stimulate Active Citizenship: Show how young people can build transnational bridges and networks, inspired by the network model created by the Sunflowers Tour.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
