Find Your Voice
Every story deserves to be heard
Do you have a story to tell? Your voice can become a tool for change.
Through REFLECT Virtual Exchanges, young people from different countries meet online to share experiences, develop digital skills, and build new forms of intercultural dialogue.
Stories. Dialogue. Change.
An online space to listen, share and transform experiences into new opportunities.
16 online meetings
Intercultural dialogue + Digital empowerment
The Pathway
An online journey between dialogue, identity and digital skills
The program includes 16 virtual meetings, organized into two complementary tracks: 8 intercultural dialogues and 8 digital empowerment sessions.
Each meeting is designed as a safe, participatory and international space where young people with different experiences can engage, listen to each other and turn their voice into a resource for personal and social empowerment.
Intercultural dialogues
These meetings are dedicated to dialogue on identity, belonging, migration, inclusion and active citizenship. Participants will be guided through interactive activities to reflect on their own experiences, listen to different perspectives and develop empathy, critical thinking and intercultural awareness.
Digital empowerment sessions
The second part of the program helps young people develop digital, communication and creative skills. Participants will explore tools and practices for online communication, tell their story, create multimedia content and use digital platforms to promote inclusion and social change.
How the sessions work
The meetings will take place online, in English, via accessible platforms such as Zoom or Google Meet.
Each session will last about one hour and will be facilitated by a team of trained facilitators.
Online and international
You will participate with young people from Belgium, Lithuania, Italy, Ghana, Uganda and Tanzania
Sessions of about one hour
The meetings are designed to be dynamic, accessible and engaging.
Spaces for exchange
These are not lectures, but moments of dialogue, listening and exchange.
Special guests
Some sessions will open with contributions from experts and content creators.
Target group
A space for young people who want to get involved
The program is aimed at young people aged 18 and over, with a basic knowledge of English and the desire to engage in an international, creative and inclusive context.
If you come from a difficult path, a marginalized context or have a migration background, this space is also designed for you.
