Needs assessment on the use of artistic practices in civic education

February 28, 2025

The CivicArt consortium team has completed a study on the use of artistic practices in civic education for young people in Ukraine and Georgia. The final report contains the results of an analysis of the needs, preferences and challenges faced by youth workers, educators, artists and artivists in implementing artistic practices and artivism in civic education.

The study results demonstrate a high interest in using visual arts and performances to draw attention to important social issues. Almost half of the respondents expressed interest in holding exhibitions discussing social issues, and a third supported the idea of organizing performances and art installations. Thematic exhibitions with master classes, mobile workshops, and socially oriented art events were also mentioned.

The report contains a detailed description of the research methodology, the Ukrainian and Georgian contexts for the development of civic education and youth participation, as well as a direct overview of the results and recommendations on topics, formats and opportunities for including artistic and artivistic practices in non-formal education.

This report would be useful not only for the further development of the project, but also for anyone interested in finding new formats of civic education for young people.
