Abstract
The potential for youth participation to transform communities is increasingly recognized in the political-practical-academic sphere. This article analyses the methodological learning from our participatory digital project based on music and the arts with Afro-Colombian and indigenous youth in Quibdó (Colombia), an area affected by conflict, violence and systemic marginalization. Presenting the co-produced digital methodology, we reflect on the challenges and opportunities that arise from involving youth in marginalized geographies through creative and digital forms of engagement. At a time in which COVID-19 has highlighted the challenges of digital inclusion worldwide, our findings provide practical insights for planning inclusive digital projects with marginalized youth. They highlight the need for methodological and pedagogical approaches to be contextualised and transdisciplinary in order to harness the potential of music and the arts for fostering youth participation.
