Regional Youth Council of Zilina is planning on implementing a 6-day-lasting international training course on how to implement local actions to empower young people to discover their potential, in order to participate in a diverse, connected and inclusive Europe. The training course is targeted at youth workers, youth leaders and youth representatives and is envisaged to take place from September 10th – 17th of 2016 in Slovakia. Funding will be applied for at the Slovak National Agency of ERASMUS+, Key Action 1, Mobility of Youth Workers. For this project, we are looking for international partner organisations from the ERASMUS+ KA1 Programme Countries (28 EU member states + FYROM, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Turkey). Being a partner organisation entitles you to send 2 – 3 participants to the training course.
The training course aims at building up the competences of youth workers, youth representatives and the institutions they represent to empower young people to discover their potential and to create the conditions for real participation in a diverse, connected and inclusive Europe. A focus will be put on activities and measures on local level (e.g. municipal youth parliaments), as well as respective follow-up projects will be fostered. The training course also contributes to the personal and professional development of the participants and raises their employability, as well as the capacities of youth organisations in the field. In the big picture, the proposed project strives to positively contribute to the level of participation, inclusion, cohesion and diversity in Europe with the means of youth work.
