Millaista on nuoren näkökulmasta osallistua esimerkiksi kainuulaisen päätöksenteon ja virkavalmistelun prosesseihin? Miten voimme edesauttaa nuorten näkymistä ja kuulumista niissä ja sitä, että nuorten näkökulma tulisi huomioitua oikea-aikaisesti ja vaikuttavasti? Entä mikä mahdollisesti estää nuoria vaikuttamasta paikallispolitiikan kautta? Tällaisia asioita on pohdittu Kainuun liiton Interreg Aurora minihankkeessa tänä keväänä.
Tule kuuntelemaan ja keskustelemaan tästä tärkeästä aiheesta hankkeen englanninkieliseen päätöswebinaariin 5.6. klo 14.

Hello hello from the Project workshop nro 3, Gaming.
Even after the thorough search we could not find many-any educational games from the field of Social Entrepreneurship- that would also be fun, simple and playable, so we asked our heroes from to help us and 💥boom💥 we have the prototypes of two board games to develope further with them.
Kids are amazing! Fresh brains!
Tomorrow we learn about communication.
