Acknowledging the challenges in building an inclusive and resilient post-COVID-19 society, ranging from public health and employment to education and social protection. And taking the steps to promote and encourage youth participation in decision making processes UBC joined the “Minecrafting resilient Cities: innovative YOUth-led Policy process for sustainable Europe – MC-YOU”.
The project is focused on engaging young people in rethinking the future and building sustainable and modern European cities using the popular game Minecraft. The project aims to empower young people to take an active role in designing and creating the cities of the future by leveraging the creative and educational potential of Minecraft but also to raise awareness among young people about the importance of sustainability and modernity in urban planning and development.
The project is co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the EU and will be jointly implemented by 8 partners: Network partners Out of the Box (Belgium) as project leader, UBC (Poland), Piloting cities (Faro, Riga, Sandanski), Youth stakeholder partners YEPP (Germany/Europe), CESIE (Italy) and quality assurance partner LINK DMT (Italy).
