In July 2022 we will gather in Magdeburg (Germany) for the final youth-forum of the project “Cities of Learning. Youth co-design learning, civic and career pathways.” The forum will bring together more than 100 young people, youth workers, representatives of grassroot organisations and decision makers from 8 different countries across Europe.
Following the expressed needs and interests from the young participants in the project, we want to use VR technologies to connect young people also in a digital sphere and let them explore VR activities as a modern day tool for creative exchange and exploration of future linked technologies with educational opportunities. In order to react to those needs, we would like to explore VR technologies together with the participants of the project.

- Implement an online training (virtually before the youth forum) to introduce a group of young people and staff from the project (around 20 people) to VR technologies, try out communication in VR and explore several educational opportunities with this technology.
- To give all participants of the youth forum the opportunity to explore VR technologies during the forum (onboarding meetings before the forum and several activities during the forum).
