The aim of this project was to work on the concepts of citizenship, we lead the volunteers through reflections on this concept, their role as citizens and how to become active members of a society. With this project, volunteers became more aware of their reality and problems and were able to take actions that promoted a positive change in attitudes and make them more active and participative citizens. The involvement of this participants in local community activities with local partners allowed us to diversify the environment of the volunteer work, their experiences and training possibilities and their tools of civic participation.
