What will you learn at this time?
You will learn that your voice can become a proposal. The video
and infographic "Promote
the Common Good" will show you how empathy, cooperation, and
responsibility make an individual idea become collective.
You will discover that proposing a change is also a way to
participate in democracy and to add to the well-being of all.
Now that
you've identified a challenge, it's time to propose a change. Here
we go from observing to imagining collective solutions.
Step4:
Design a realistic and creative proposal that can be promoted
collectively. Don't forget to check:
What solutions have already been tried in your community or in
others for a similar challenge?
What people or resources can you turn to achieve this?
Step5:
Prepare your proposal in a clear and attractive way.
To dig deeper, think about these questions:
What aspect of the challenge do you want to transform?
Who would benefit from this change and how?
What concrete actions can be carried out from your school or
community?
What resources, people, or spaces already exist that can support
your idea?
What results do you expect in the short and long term?
Step 6: Choose the
way you are going to present it:
Adapted image or digital poster
with your solution idea.
Drawing or photo
accompanied by a short text.
Audio
or short video
where you explain your proposal.
Step 7: Post your proposal on
the
Wall 3: Be proactive and get involved.Don't
forget to point out who could join (students, teachers, families,
neighbors, authorities) and how. Make
sure you
clearly mention your name and which country, city or community it
is, so that those of us who participate from different places can
better understand your context.
Each proposal you share is a way to add your
voice and show that youth participation strengthens common life.
