“Youth for Peace in the Mediterranean Sea” is a 24-month capacity-building project under the Erasmus+ programme. It brings together nine organisations from eight countries: Italy, France, Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan, and Spain.

This project focuses on strengthening peace education across the Mediterranean youth sector through the following core objectives:

• Boost the competences of youth professionals so they can embed peace education into their projects and daily work.
• Exchange experiences, tools, and methodologies between youth organisations across the region.
• Develop practical, inclusive educational resources for young people especially those facing social exclusion to learn about peace and justice.
• Encourage youth engagement in peacebuilding efforts, from local actions to wider regional impact.
• Build an international network to promote cooperation between EU and Southern Mediterranean countries on peace education.

The project begins with the identification of existing best practices. It continues with a series of online and in person activities, focused on professional development, local testing of new tools with youth groups, and the creation of participatory proposals led by young people.All tools and results will be compiled into a Manual and a set of videos, to be shared through multiplier events in each partner country for broad impact and sustainability.
