BACKSLASH designs and implements European projects, educational methodologies and participatory processes that help young people, professionals and organisations create lasting social change.

Four strategic areas guide our work for 2026-2030. Each one has its own objective, its own lines of action and its own projects.
Removing the barriers that keep young people out
Making sure young people with diverse profiles and circumstances, especially those facing the greatest barriers, can reach learning and participation opportunities adapted to their needs.
Methodologies built with young people, not for them
Developing and applying non-formal education methodologies that carry the voice of young people, strengthen their capacities and improve the practice of professionals, organisations and public authorities.
Connecting the local with the European and the global
Strengthening a local, national, European and cross-sector network that connects actors, territories and learning, creates new opportunities and increases the transformative capacity of youth work.
What we claim, we measure
Consolidating an evaluation and learning system that measures the changes produced, improves interventions and demonstrates their impact.
