Our project is situated in the context of the European Year of Cultural Heritage (as well as thinking about Rijeka that will be the European Capital of Culture in Croatia in 2020) and the contribution of Cultural Sector to the employment of young people. How is this project contributing to this main aim of the youth employment? Through a European platform with online tools for youth workers, employment agents and volunteers who work daily with young people.For this reason, we identified the need to train youth workers, employment agents and even volunteers to equip them with the necessary tools to initiate and direct activities aimed at young people, such as employment workshops and personalized guidance. The project includes the exchange of good practices, the implementation of the network at European level to facilitate the work of young people with skills related to the cultural field, the training of youth leaders and the development of a European platform with online tools for youth workers and employment agents to inspire them and contribute to the dissemination of work on cultural heritage among young people.The promotion of work in the field of cultural heritage is relevant, since statistical data show that young people are very motivated to use their energy and creativity to develop work related to European cultural heritage.The transnational dimension represents the core of our project, because it offers the possibility for young workers from different parts of Europe to share experiences, learn what others do, think about how to adapt the methods of others in the workplace and implement their achievements.To get the project objectives, we are six partners: Teatro Sol y Tierra from Spain, Diverse Youth Network Association from Hungary, Kocaturk Training and Consulting from Turkey, Regain from France, Meraki from Croatia and A.I.D from Greece. Among the six organisations we'll get our common aims and will help European youth because young people are, also, our heritage.

CONTEXT, BACKGROUND OF THE PROJECTThe project gathers 4 international organizations with background in various fields, in order to produce results together. CEFIG will provide background from Social Entrepreneurship, Soeholm 4H will add their part of designing a simulation game, LOGOS their experience with designing Escape Rooms and EUducate their ability to develop board game mechanisms and game assets.OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECTWe have formed the following objectives of the project:1) To share experience and competences amongst partners in Gamification Educational Methods and Social Entrepreneurship.2) To present Social Enterprises as a way to bring sustainable social impact and promote inclusion amongst youth and youth workers.3) To help youth workers develop entrepreneurial skills amongst youth by creating innovative educational methods on Social Entrepreneurship.4) To create a guide, which will enable educators to easily use these specific tools in their daily work.5) To disseminate gamification and NFE to youth workers in participating countries, but also share it amongst our networks in the EU.DESCRIPTION OF ACTIVITIESC1:International training of youthworkers/game designers7-days residential activity designed to exchange knowledge and experience amongst partners in the first part and combine them to develop working game-loops or beta-versions of the games we will be developing as main intellectual outputs.C2: International training of youthworkers5-days residential activity designed to coach youthworkers into using the created tools and ask them to help us develop a guide for practitioners, which will enable outsiders to use the tools without going through this training.ME: Multiplication events1-day seminars hosted in all 4 countries, where games will be prepared so participants can experience them and see young people playing. Participants will get all materials to use the games and guides.NUMBER AND PROFILE OF PARTICIPANTSC1: 20 participants, english-speaking youthworkers/gamification experts, game-designers with experience in youth work. After the activity, participants will do follow-up workshops in their home communities. 8 participants will be people with fewer opportunties.C2: 20 participants, english-speaking youthworkers/teachers/trainers, who want to take on gamification tools as their practice, get a little inside on game-creating and are ready to share it amongst their colleagues.After the activity, participants will do follow-up workshops in their home communities. 8 participants will be people with fewer opportunties.ME: 30 participants per country. Youthworkers/teachers/trainers, English is no longer a requirement, seminars will be hosted in national languages. Participants will be people who are educators and look to adapt already developed tools and can share it amongst their networks. Participants will be chosen from geographically distant regions. All applicants for this event will get the materials by email.METHODOLOGYThe overall goal of the project is to promote non-formal education and gamification as a method of educating young people. During the project in all activities, we will also be using non-formal education.RESULTS- Implementation of 2 international tranings for youthworkers- Implementation of 4 national seminars- Creation of 2 gamified educational tools on Social EntrepreneurshipIMPACT- Raising competences of youthworkers present on C1 and C2- Raising competences of young people, who are participants of workshops hosted with our tools- Promoting Social Entrepreneurship as an inclusive and sustainable way of doing social impact.- Promoting NFE and Gamification as good educational methods- Promoting Erasmus+ amongst youth workers and young peopleLONGTERM BENEFITS- Raised capacity of participating organizations.- More competent youth workers, who have been part of this project.- Huge potential of our developed methods being used for the next decades.
