Mednarodni projekt ‘Poslušajte nas!’ smo izvedli v partnerstvu z Leo Clubom Murska Sobota, litvansko srednjo šolo v ruskem jeziku Vilniaus ‘Santaros’ ter litvansko debatno organizacijo Public Institution Educational Debate Centre. Namen projekta je bil mlade v Sloveniji in Litvi, ter širše, opolnomčiti za delovanje v javnem in političnem prostoru skozi izobraževanje o aktulanih evropskih procesih politične participacije ter treninge kritičnega mišljenja in javnega nastopanja.

Cilji projekta so bili tako mlade seznaniti predvsem s principi in delovanjem demokratičnih institucij in postopkov, analizirati točke vstopa mladih v javne prostore, izmenjava stališč o participaciji med mladimi in strokovnjaki na področju participacije in mladinskega dela, spodbujanje širše razprave na nacionalnem in nadnacionalnem nivoju o pomembnosti vključevanja mladih v procese odločanja ter razvoj socialnih kompetenc mladih in mladinskih delavcev, ki jih bodo opolnomočile za delovanje v njihovih javnih sferah.
