The Gyumri Civic Music Lab is a participatory initiative empowering young people to transform local social concerns into collective civic action through music. Participants engage in dialogue workshops to explore issues affecting their community, such as youth disengagement, social inequality, and future uncertainty. They then co-create songs, spoken word, and performances that reflect these concerns. The lab culminates in public presentations, allowing community members to experience and engage with the work. By combining artistic creation with civic dialogue, the project fosters youth empowerment, strengthens community bonds, and produces a replicable toolkit for participatory cultural initiatives in small cities, offering a model for civic engagement across Europe.
