Building Citizens: The Educational Role of the 'New Ekinata' Project in Obtaining Documents by Young People

Abstract

The 'New Ekinata' project introduces an innovative approach to civic education for young Brazilians by focusing on acquiring essential documents for citizenship. The project proposes the development of a mobile game designed to educate and engage youth in obtaining documents, understanding their requirements, and appreciating their significance in societal life. This initiative addresses the information gap many young people face, empowering them to understand and exercise their rights and duties. The game seeks to make learning more engaging and practical, with a detailed analysis planned at the project's conclusion to assess its development, impact on civic awareness, and contribution to facilitating access to essential documents.
