ABSTRACT:

The phenomenon of youth unemployment is very widespread in Europe and in the partner countries. It can have very dangerous consequences for young people, such as psychological disorders, social exclusion, and proximity to juvenile delinquency. During the project, we will develop a training manual for youth workers using sport and non-formal education to enhance young people’s soft skills useful for moving into the world of work. We have foreseen the realization of 3 international training activities during which the developed educational contents will be tested with the target groups: a training course for youth workers, a youth exchange, and job shadowing. Partners will organize local workshops with the young people in their own city. Two tangible products will be created during the project: an educational manual and a documentary video of the activities aimed at young people.

Project OUTCOMES:

(1) Elaboration of educational contents

(2) Implementation of educational activities
