WE MOVE EU FORWARD EU Project

The "MooveEUforward" project, part of the 2025 Erasmus+ KA152 YOU –

Youth Mobility call, was organised by WeEurope Network – Associação Civica

Europeia.

The mobility activity took place in Rio Tinto, Portugal (headquarters of the

coordinating organisation) from 22 to 27 April 2026, bringing together 32

young people with fewer opportunities (aged between 18 and 30) and 8 adult

group leaders (one from each partner organisation, with no age limit). The

youth mobility programme included participants from PORTUGAL, ITALY,

DENMARK, GREECE, LITHUANIA, GEORGIA, SPAIN and IRELAND.

The project organised various activities at the "Rio Tinto Youth Centre", the

"Associação Beneficiente Familiar" and "AMP – Associação de Municipios do

Porto". Several cultural activities also took place in the city of Porto and in the

city of Guimarães.

This project stems from an observation shared by all partner organisations,

namely that a large proportion of European youth, particularly young people in

vulnerable situations, remain detached from European issues, demonstrating

low levels of civic, political, and democratic participation. This detachment

results in fragile European citizenship, often reduced to consumption and a

distant perception of institutions, rather than expressing itself through genuine

democratic and transformative engagement.
