Abstract

This study investigates the importance of developing social responsibility in youth within the context of socio-cultural education, a pedagogical approach fostering social values and civic engagement. We analyze this issue from philosophical, pedagogical, and psychological perspectives, emphasizing the need for young people to develop qualities like empathy, adherence to social norms, and responsible decision-making.

A comprehensive review of literature from the 20th and 21st centuries reveals the complexity and relevance of "social responsibility" and its formation. We conducted a psychological and pedagogical experiment involving schoolchildren, students, and teachers to assess levels of social responsibility. The results demonstrate positive shifts in social responsibility levels following the implementation of a socio-cultural education program, with significant increases in participants exhibiting high and average levels of social responsibility. Qualitative data from participant statements further support the effectiveness of the program in fostering a stronger sense of social responsibility among youth. This study contributes to the field by offering empirical evidence for the effectiveness of socio-cultural education in promoting socially responsible behavior in young people.
