NEETworker
The main goal of this project is to provide a space for 14 organisations from
Erasmus+ programme and partner countries to establish new partnerships and
exchange good practices in the field of social inclusion (focusing on young
people in NEET situation).
Through this training course we would like to offer you the space for exchange, inspiration and creation:
• Exchanging good practices and also the struggles from your professional practice with youth
• Getting inspired by each other from what we do and how
• Creating new partnerships and new international initiatives in the frame of Erasmus +,addressing especially NEET youth.
We would also like to present closer the idea of Erasmus + projects to the ones who are not very familiar with the concept. The methods used in the project will be based on non-formal methodology: discussions, simulation games, open space technology, role-plays, drama and any others. A detailed timetable of activities can be found in the separate document. The activities listed will be explained further on the first day of the training course.
In line with the Erasmus+ requirements, the whole project’s general objectives are:
– to promote mobility and capacity building;
– to encourage team-work, building a solid network and to foster cooperation;
– to identify challenges that NEET young people face in the daily life;
– to share specific tools and insights for a gender-sensitive approach to human rights education and youth work;
– to examine different expressions of NEET youth generation;
– to train youth workers on raising awareness on the issue and, as a result, to mobilize and involve more young people and youth leaders in the society

Gender +
This training course will be based on non-formal education methodology, i.e. experiential learning, practical workshops, working in small groups and in plenary, open discussions, simulations, role plays, etc. It will promote the values of human rights, recognition, acceptance, active tolerance, respect for human dignity, peaceful resolution of conflicts and solidarity.
Youth workers and youth leaders have an important role to play in the promotion of gender equality and prevention of gender-based violence. The training course “Gender+” is a result of collaboration of youth workers from 13 EU and neighboring countries. We believe that working with gender is a competence area that can and should be developed. It begins with youth workers and youth activists working with themselves and requires reflecting on attitudes, beliefs, knowledge and behaviour that a person brings to youth work. Our project aims to empower youth workers to question their personal gender assumptions, to apply gender dimension to their youth work and youth activities, and to contribute to more inclusive and gender just societies through non-formal education methods.
In line with the Erasmus+ requirements, the whole project’s general objectives are:
– to promote mobility and capacity building.
– to compare how gender norms may differ according to context;
– to encourage reflection on gender assumptions that we may be not aware of;
– to identify challenges young people face in relation to gender equality;
– o share specific tools and insights for a gender-sensitive approach to human rights education and youth work;
– to examine different expressions of gender-based violence in youth contexts;
– to train youth workers on raising awareness on the issue and, as a result, to mobilize and involve more young people in the prevention of gender-based violence;

Practice Makes Entrepreneurs
This training course is mainly focused on the practical skills that any future entrepreneur needs to have. The project will enable young people to come in touch with an array of soft skills acquired through non-formal educational methods making them ready to enter into the business arena.
‘Practice Makes Entrepreneurs’ is seeking to equip youth workers and leaders who work directly with young unemployed people with essential business and entrepreneurial knowledge and skills, in order to make them capable to indicate ‘alternative paths’ correlated with the labor market, thus contributing to the limitation of the unemployment among youth. Specifically, by saying ‘alternative paths’ it’s being implied the promotion of self-employment and a general cultivation of an entrepreneurial culture. The above target will be accomplished through a combination of practical knowledge provision on entrepreneurship, and a parallel cultivation of a positive way of thinking within the side-paths of self-awareness and self-motivation
In line with the Erasmus+ requirements, the project’s general objectives are:
– to provide practical tools using non-formal education that inspire young people to take entrepreneurial action.
– to create a space to reflect on educational non-formal tools related to entrepreneurship and pave the way for their transferability and further development.
– to develop entrepreneurial competences that make use of the non-formal education in youth work in order to stimulate self-employment and entrepreneurial culture among unemployed youth.
– to develop a sustainable network among youth organizations which are being associated with entrepreneurship within EU and create stronger partnerships for future projects in the European context.
