Do you have an educational content that would need to be visualized in a comic to reach youth more effectively? If yes, apply here by 11 January 2019!
In the age of visual language and need for more engaging learning tools, the team of ComEdu:Comics for Education is bringing together artists and youth workers from Latvia, Portugal and Estonia to create educational comics for youth.
If your organization is engaged in youth work or education and you have facts, messages, processes, stories or concepts that need to be explained in a visual manner of comic for better educational experience for young people, we may help!
How it works: you share your idea or need for a visualization with us, and we will select the most suitable ideas from Latvia, Estonia and Portugal to work on the comics development with our artists (1-2 comics for each country). Our comic artists will visualize your content during our project. For free! The only thing that you need to make sure is that the materials are widely used in youth education and available for free. We will also encourage the network of artists and organizations to grow, so you can meet and work together also in the future. Because we love to learn visually!
ComEdu: Comics for Education is a strategic partnership project (Erasmus+: Youth in Action) in the field of youth (innovative practices) that aims to improve and expand international youth work by bringing comic artists and youth workers together and developing comics as a learning and communication tool in non-formal education.
Organizer: Grafiskie Stāsti (Latvia)
