MusiCOM | Community Music Activities for young people during the COVID-19 pandemic

Music Community is a project that explores possibilities of making a more efficient use of music in non formal education for young people, focusing on digitization as an essential trend and tool and on values such as social inclusion and environmental friendliness. The project also relies on the implication and modern vision of young people who are studying in the field of music and arts. As a response to the problem of the alienation of young people in these difficult times of the pandemic, the project consortium develop several instruments to be used in non-formal education. These instruments are: a collaborative platform for young people, an online manual for community based education on Music as a toll to overcome anxiety and an application for youth workers mixing music with other arts and a holistic artistic education MOOC. One of the objectives is to foster well-being through music among 80 beneficiaries of the project (participating in a blended mobility or in testing activities for the IOs), over the course of 24 months.
