Context/background: The process of creating an active civil society among young people has been going for last few decades, however, the involvement of youth in the activities of non-governmental organizations and active participation in European events are still at an unsatisfactory level. It is very important to guide the next generation toward social maturity, in which their decisions and actions will lead to the strengthening of social balance. Lack of involvement of young people in society, is a growing problem in most European countries. Young people are not motivated enough to get involved and do not have sufficient knowledge about the benefits and opportunities offered by the active participation in social life. Engaging young people in social activities is an essential factor in the functioning of society as a whole, regardless of place of residence. Very often, it affects the creation of jobs in the market and improving the quality of life of residents. One of the strategies of European Union concerning the youth sector is to encourage young people to participate in the democratic process in society. This project aimed to help 38 people from 5 different European countries to improve mechanisms to engage in social activities, to encourage young people to support NGOs and promote active participation in the life of Europe. The project aimed to show that civic participation can take place in parallel with the development of their competencies, interests, talents. Promoting the activities at local, national, and international level helped them in shaping their own personality, skills, knowledge acquisition which will have a significant impact on the future of European society.
