Moment 4: Build as a community

momento 1 

What will you learn at this time?

You will learn that participating is also dialogue and contributing to the ideas of others. By reading and commenting on proposals from young people from different places, you will discover the value of listening, adding and connecting. Your words can inspire, enrich and open new paths, showing that democracy is strengthened when it is built in community.

In addition, the feedback you receive can help expand and strengthen your proposal. Thus, each exchange becomes an opportunity to grow together and build stronger ideas.

At this moment we will move from working individually to adding our voices to strengthen the ideas of others.

  • Step 1: Re-enter Wall 3: Be proactive and get involved

  • Step 2: Read carefully the proposals shared by other young people.

  • Step 3: Choose at least three proposals and comment on them. To make your feedback more helpful, consider these questions:

    • Would you like that proposal to happen in your school or community as well?

    • What part of the proposal do you find most valuable or inspiring?

    • How did it make you think or feel when you read it?

    • What would you add from your own experience or context to the proposal?

    • What other ideas from the forum could you connect her/him with?

  • Step 4: Post your comments on the proposal, always taking care to use a respectful, constructive and collaborative tone.

Your words can give strength and new directions to the ideas of others: date to comment and be part of the collective construction that transforms proposals into actions.
