On 26 September 2025, Lisbon becomes the stage where innovation and civic engagement come together to shape Europe’s democratic future. The Youth4Peace Final Conference will take place at Casa do Impacto, one of Lisbon’s leading hubs for social innovation.

A Gathering for Change

The Youth4Peace project, co-funded by Erasmus+, has brought together partners and young leaders from across Europe to explore how we can strengthen democracy, build peace, and empower communities together. After two years of collaboration, experimentation, and innovation, the final conference will showcase the results — and open the stage to new voices.

What to Expect

A full day of activities will bring together youth leaders, educators, innovators, and changemakers:

  • Morning Panel – Flash Talks: Civic innovation and achievements in civic tech, edtech, and social innovation.
  • Afternoon Panel – Community Impact: Presentations of civic and educational projects, highlighting their importance for communities.
  • Roundtables & Debates: Youth-led discussions on the future of democracy and civic participation.
  • Immersive Showcase & Reception: Hands-on experiences, VR demos, and networking to close the day.
