Young Creatives Going Digital (YCGD) is a project supported by the Erasmus+ program of the European Commission. The aim of the project is to encourage cooperation between organizations that support young creatives, creators and artists involved in the European Capitals of Culture, as well as to provide young people with new learning opportunities to become more entrepreneurial and digitally literate. The project's activities are focused on young people who currently have the challenge of making a living from their work in the creative sector.

The project includes a number of activities:

The initial meeting for getting to know each other and planning the project was held at the end of June in Novi Sad.

This was followed by the collaborative design of an innovative program for young creatives and virtual mobility for members of organizations and young people. Online webinars were held on four occasions during September, October, November and December. All organizations involved in the project had representatives, who held webinars on pre-selected topics related to entrepreneurship and digital capabilities.

The five-day transnational training "Learn, share, create" was realized in Luxembourg, in the city of Esch-sur-Alzette (Belval University Campus), in September. Training participants had the opportunity to hear more about NFT and Blockchain technologies and present their knowledge and ideas at the hackathon.


A virtual (final) conference on digital and entrepreneurial opportunities for young creatives and artists was held in November and was attended by more than 100 people.
