"Rebus Student Research Academy has set itself the goal and managed to involve the student community in the legislative process and strategic decision-making in connection with the development of European legislation.In the contract period, the project was implemented through seasonal seminars between the partner organizations, where law and international relations students received professional expertise from prominent specialists in the field of international law and legislative technique. On several occasions, it was necessary to change the originally set dates for the activities due to unforeseen circumstances with the planned participants, such as illness and objective inability to travel.The last partnership meeting (TPM 6) and seminar (LTT 6) were not held due to the global crisis and the danger to the health of the participants of the Covid - 19 pandemic.(https://vt.government.bg/documents/rd-01-124-vuvejdane-protiepidemichni-merki.pdf; https://www.mh.government.bg/bg/normativni-aktove/zapovedi-pravilnitsi-instruktsii/;)the orders of the rector of Sofia University “St. Kliment Ohridski ”(halls for seminar 6 - C6, TPPM6 were reserved there);(https://www.unisofia.bg/index.php/bul/novini/novini_i_s_bitiya/zapoved_na_rektora_na_sofijskiya_universitet_sv_kliment_ohridski;https://www.unisofia.bg/index.php/bul/universitet_t/fakulteti/biologicheski_fakultet2/novini/zapovedi_na_rektora_na_su_v_v_vr_zka_s_izv_nrednoto_polozhenie_za_vsichki_prepodavateli_sluzhiteli_i_studenti; )the recommendations of the Ministry of Interior for refraining from traveling in the Republic of Northern Macedonia and Turkey(https://www.mfa.bg/bg/embassyinfo/republic+of+north+macedonia; https://www.mfa.bg/bg/embassyinfo/turkey;);the long-lasting ban on closing the borders of the Republic of Northern Macedonia and Turkey traveling from there to Bulgaria and back. A decision in principle was made by the General Assembly of the Student Science Academy in agreement with our partners that the health of our volunteers and participants is in the first place and we will not put them at risk, so the last activities will not be carried out. Among the lecturers we had asked to take part in the last seminar - C6 there were those who were diagnosed with coronavirus - Prof. Yanaki Stoilov, and others were contact.As a result of the shock and danger to their lives, they flatly refused to participate in face-to-face or online seminars due to their inability to perform their duties. Two volunteers from the Republic of Northern Macedonia and Turkey, as well as 38 from the Faculty of Law of Sofia University ""St. Kliment Ohridski ”, but we were faced with the hypothesis of“ force majeure ”.Namely - an objective obstacle or the so-called (circumstance, event of) force majeure - a circumstance (event) entirely dependent on and due to unpredictable or unpredictable events or factors independent of the will or actions of one or more persons and in this sense non-preventable such as: a global pandemic threatening human life and health. In case of force majeure, the parties to an agreement shall be temporarily released from liability in case of non-performance due to objective impossibility until the force majeure ceases to exist.That is why we decided to suffer the sanction of not receiving funding for these activities, but to prefer to preserve the life and health of the participants in the project.We had a wonderful relationship with our partners, which was based on the exchange of good practices and contractual relations - Center for Intercultural Dialogue (CID) and Pi Youth Association.The activities with which the students were engaged during the project were participation in seminars, where they got acquainted with the European legislation, the methodology and the procedures for its transposition into the national legal systems. This was done by simulating legislative sessions such as those in domestic and Community legal systems - the European Parliament.They were assisted and trained in the performance of their tasks by lecturers-experts in the field of law and international relations, and the overall idea is that they acquired practical knowledge on the creation, translation and transposition of Community legal acts in the national legal peace.The methodology of the work is based on the acquisition of knowledge through practical tasks, games and competitions between the individual participants, and last but not least will focus on understanding and overcoming cultural, socio-economic and political differences between different European communities through cultural evenings, intellectual pursuits and structured dialogue.Student Research Academy ""REBUS"" has set a goal and we believe that we have fulfilled it, namely to be able, through the resources of this project to prepare young people to join the legislative process in the countries they represent. On the other hand, the result of their participation was the dissemination and sharing of knowledge and skills among their colleagues in their student communities.This newly created circle of young lawyers and specialists, from the humanities, operating in different European countries has led to a better understanding, application and creation of European legislation. The long-term benefits of the project are related and we are still developing them, namely the dissemination and recognition of European values ​​by the various European communities, as well as strengthening the structured dialogue between young professionals and European and state institutions.Last but not least, we place the long-term exchange of good practices and the implementation of youth activities."

<< Objectives >>The aim of the project is to build the capacity of youth organizations in third countries associated with the Erasmus+ program to enhance their ability to provide non-formal learning opportunities to young people with fewer opportunities. This will help improve the competences of young people and their active participation in society. This project is designed to empower young people through capacity building initiatives aimed at promoting entrepreneurial and digital skills.<< Implementation >>Development of: - tools and methods for the socio-professional development of youth workers and trainers;- non-formal learning methods, including media literacy skills;- new forms of practical training schemes and simulations of real-life cases in society.- new forms of youth work, including the strategic use of open and flexible learning, virtual cooperation, and open educational resources (OER).Organization of events/seminars/workshops and mobility activities.<< Results >>Raised capacity of youth organizations in the area of promoting entrepreneurial and digital skills.Improved level of competences among young people with fewer opportunities it these areas.Increased cooperation, networking and exchange of best practices among the partners.Enhanced information, communication and media literacy skills of young people.Improved quality and recognition of youth work in Europe and third countries associated to the Erasmus+ Program.

<< Objectives >>Given the growth of mentoring and its valorisation in EU countries and the importance given to its impact on the success of young people, the objective of the MENTOR project is to strengthen the capacity of youth professionals to implement and/or reinforce their mentoring system in order to facilitate the integration and support of future participants in international mobility. This support will enable them to better integrate into the labour market with a mobility experience to be valued.<< Implementation >>MENTOR project aims at reinforcing the capacities of two target groups: youth professionals and Mentors & Mentees (former and future international mobility projects + any other people wanted to become a Mentor). To that end, four tools will be developed:• Transnational study on mentoring needs;• Guide for youth professionals;• Mentors' inclusive training• Mentors & Mentees portfolio<< Results >>Project partners expect to disseminate throughout the EU the needs of youth professionals in Mentoring linked to international mobility projects, to engage youth professionals to contribute to the implementation of Mentoring on a European scale; to enable youth professionals to train, inform and accompany participants to become mentors; and to enable Mentors and Mentees to be informed and guided on how to accompany or to be accompanied.

"There is growing recognition of the need to urgently shift from individual to collective responses, engage critically with our responsibilities towards each other, our future generations and the planet, and foster creativity in imagining and adapting to new possibilities for human existence. The Covid-19 pandemic reminds us that it is we who need to become resilient, and learn to live 'as guests' rather than as 'masters' of Nature. The responsibility for this creativity and care lies also with education organisations and their curricula. This project is our response to ""how do we learn to imagine and create a new world' using the best of the lessons learnt during global lockdown, and continue to grow as part of an interdependent global family. We must understand this now more than ever and 'build back better.' ! The project is set to bring participants tot he sweet spot between PROBLEM and PASSION.This project is Inspired by Paulo Friere 's Pedagogy of Hope, where he notes that although hope alone is not enough to achieve liberation, without hope there is no struggle at all. Freire emphasizes the importance of the relationship between educators and students and continues to fight against the banking model of education. Through the formal curricula we will explore how this pedagogy of hope and values based learning can be weaved into our everyday classroom encounters to form the cornerstone of education; and learning. bell hooks, in Teaching Community helps us to focus on how, through the learner-educator relationship and ideals of shared knowledge and shared learning we can choose to end inequities and create a fair and just community.Considering the significance of active citizenship on our democracy we have chosen active civic engagement while holding common values and promoting participation as our framework approach. To this end we will develop our innovative practices using the UN Global Goals (SDGs) as our key framework. The SDG framework is a useful and accessible starting point for developing a GCE approach and embedding a more global ethos into any school or organisation. The SDGs are a helpful tool for enhancing existing curricula and engaging the whole school community (including parents and governors), as well as for collaborating with other groups and organisations to consider the relationship between the local and the global. The SDGs can be used as a framework and tool to support students develop their research, critical thinking, problem solving, teamwork, and communication skills. Students need these 21st Century skills to prepare them for the major real-world problems they will face during their lifetime. Teaching Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and exploring them can also support students find their identity and purpose.As our Turkish partners put it, 'The biggest challenge is to grow hope in these students again. We believe that the students have now faced situations during Covid-19 which they used to answer hypothetically in Debate lessons. E.g., if there were only 2 packages of pasta on a market shelf and someone else is waiting for past as well, would they buy both packages, or not? This used to be just a question for them, but now they can understand their motives for their answers better.' We are convinced that joint learning and action beyond borders is at the heart of sustainable change. We support the endeavours: “To initiate and intensify activities at all levels and in all areas of education to accelerate the process towards sustainable development” (UNESCO Roadmap for Implementing the Global Action Programme on Education for Sustainable Development, 2014). we believe learning and awareness of the various facets of each SDG is in itself essential for fostering a deeper and wider understanding of the global problems. This means recognizing the inter-linkages and interdependencies, fostering the necessary skills and competencies and empowering ourselves, teachers and learners to take action. Undoubtedly education is one of the most important instruments with which to realize the SDGs.The final words are from our Spanish partners at CIPFP, ""So this new post-Covid portal is full of luggage, and we need extra discussion time to evaluate which luggages will remain and which luggage is too heavy and old-fashioned and needs to be reconsidered. This project will help cross-sector partners to see the learning and teaching process with other eyes, from a different perspective, evaluating and analyzing different methods for learning and growing.'"

Lack of motivation, focus and energy, high levels of stress and low self-esteem have all become too common among people and it is especially worrying for younger generations which spend way too much time behind computers or on mobile phones. There are a lot of positive effects which regular physical activity can have on our bodies and general well being. We can experience many benefits if we include it in our lifestyle. On the other hand, many of us think we don't have time or we lack knowledge about the correct way of exercising. Transnational Youth Initiative “Shake a leg, together!” is a collaborative work of people who are passionate about active and inspiring life. We are a motivated young group of which most of us met during Erasmus+ projects and realized that we are all aware of the same problems and have a common interest and wish to do something about it. Our main goal is to find interesting and creative ways to help as many people as possible to become aware of the positive effects of physical activity and consequently improve the quality of life by putting it into a regular practice. At the same time, we would like to learn about project writing and improve our competences and self-esteem as youth workers. For this reason, we’ve decided to collaborate on the transnational youth initiative together. Our idea is to connect 25 young people between 18 and 30 years old, who share a similar vision, determination and are motivated to bring positive changes into our local environment. We are planning to reach our objectives with the help of two blended mobilities and follow up activities, supported by promotional events, transnational, virtual and local meetings. These activities will importantly contribute to the achievement of the goals connected to the improvement of our skills, competencies and greater self-awareness. We will upgrade some of the newly acquired skills and theory gained through various workshops by putting it into practice. All the individual or group tasks, ideas development, communication, presentation, leadership, promotion, creative thinking, problem solving, compromising, collaboration, planning, organization and implementation of the activities, knowledge exchange, socializing, learning about cultural differences and active participation at the workshops will have an important impact on our confidence and on our everyday life and work. Within the first blended mobility, we will be preparing a Facebook challenge through which we will try to inform, connect and encourage people to dedicate a certain period of time and really give a try to a regular physical activity so that they will actually be able to experience the benefits and it will be easier to keep it as a regular practice. We are also planning to put a lot of emphasis on the promotion of this challenge. We will create a video which will be shared on the social media of all the partner organizations and there will be promo events organized on all our local communities. Second blended mobility will be focused more on the development of creative ways of being active in different situations and on the organization of the festival which will take place at the end of the mobility and later at the local levels in all of the participating countries. The festival will again serve as a promotion of the positive effects of being physically active and as a tool to connect the communities, showing people that can be more fun or encouraging when you support each other and do activities together. There will be options for different groups of people with games, competitions, dancing, yoga and interesting presentations to get more useful information. Another important part of both blended mobilities will also be activities designed to reach greater self-awareness and empowerment. A better understanding of ourselves, our behaviour, strengths and weaknesses will be reached through some workshops, introspection and number of reflections, which will be a regular practice during or on the completion of the majority of the activities. The positive impact is also expected on all the organizations, firstly because many of them are small NGO’s which don’t yet have many experiences with international projects and secondly, we believe they will acquire many new members and recognition with the help of an active promotion. Through the local events and presentations, the communities will become more aware of the organizations and the opportunities they offer especially to the young people. Also with the articles which we will write after the project’s completion and will be posted on social media the youth will be encouraged to take part on some of the amazing inter-cultural learning options the organizations are offering. In general, we are convinced that this project will have a strong influence on our personal growth and bring some important experiences from which we will benefit in all areas of our life.
