Building Better: series of asynchronous free online trainings
The Building Better Webinar is an asynchronous online training consisting of 4 Modules that addresses representatives of the youth, civic participation, arts, cultural and creative sectors with the aim of reinforcing cross-sectoral cooperation and thus involving young people in the cultural, art and civic life of their local communities. Youth workers, artists, representatives of the cultural and creative sectors, and policymakers are provided with knowledge, tools and methods to find creative and innovative solutions to new challenges that the Covid-19 pandemic has brought and therefore, improve the quality of support systems for the youth on a local, national and European level.
Join us on this amazing journey!
Through the Building Better webinar, we seek to foster creativity, culture, and multiculturalism skills of youth workers, artists, and policymakers and support the three target groups of the project to work together and find creative and innovative solutions to the new challenges.
To achieve the aforementioned goals, we have designed and developed the asynchronous Building Better Webinar that has already been released and includes the following Modules:
Module 1: Youth Well-Being and Arts Participation – provides theoretical knowledge on what well-being is and how arts and culture can contribute to the well-being of young people, referring to different approaches and methods on encouraging young people to participate in cultural and art activities.
Module 2: Tools and Practices for cooperation projects in the CCSs – offers tools and practices on the cross-sectoral cooperation between different actors with the aim of supporting young people’s active participation in the cultural and creative sectors.
Module 3: Supporting young people in online participation – is focused on innovative methods and tools to support young people and young people with fewer opportunities to overcome barriers regarding their remote participation.
Module 4: Engaging young people through social media and online spaces – proposes ways to engage young people through social media and online spaces.

About the project
The two-year (2021-2023) European project “Building Better: Online Action for Youth and the Creative and Cultural Sectors” is coordinated by Jugend- & Kulturprojekt e.V. with the aim of engaging more actively young people in cultural and creative activities, fostering cross-sectoral cooperation between cultural organisations, creative enterprises, youth centres and organisations and public authorities representing Culture and the Arts having been greatly affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.
It focuses primarily on youth creativity, cultural awareness, social participation, and supports youth workers, artists and policymakers in finding creative and innovative solutions to the new challenges brought about by the pandemic, and in improving the quality of youth support systems at the local, national and European levels.
The project aims to:
- Establish networks and new collaboration models between youth workers, local policymakers, and CCS’s actors, stimulating intercultural engagement and participation of young people and the flourishing of their creativity through the Building Better Portal of Cooperation.
- Foster creativity, culture, and multiculturalism through the Building Better Webinars, which will include learning tools, resources, and materials.
- Accelerate the digital transformation of youth work and local municipalities and increase the digital means used to adapt to the way creative products, cultural goods, events are created, managed, and disseminated.
The two outputs of the project are:
IO2: Building Better Online Portal of Cooperation
