Keep Calm and Make a Change

Description

Quality youth projects (from idea to implementation) bring sustainability of youth work, raise capacities and motivation of youth workers, contribute to the recognition of youth work, bring better impact to young people and society, keep young people motivated and engaged, raises quality of learning and involvement through youth work, raises civic and democratic engagement and brings reputation to youth organisation and youth field in general. That is why we focus on importance of building capacities of youth workers to develop, prepare, apply and implement youth projects on high quality level. Responding to the relevant and realistic needs and challenges further brings the next level of problems that youth organisation found themselves in – solutions and ideas became vague, not innovative and limited. Building up on that, we have realised that for the innovative solutions, quality projects, sustainability of the youth programmes and stronger impact of our work, one of the main thing lacking in the youth sector is the strategic networking, establishing quality and meaningful national and especially international cooperation in the youth field among the youth organisations, but also with the youth authorities, decision and policy makers, institutions working with and for young people and even business sector. This synergy is crucial for success of the youth work and highly contributes to its recognition and validation. The aim of this project is to improve the quality of youth projects, foster the innovative approaches to project-based youth work and encourage quality structured networking and cooperation in youth work field.Specific Objective 1:To enhance socio-professional development and international cooperation of youth workers by strengthening their capacities in the field of project writing and project management and empower innovations in finding solutions and developing ideas.Specific Objective 2: To increase quality and strategic approach to cooperation and networking between youth We plan to achieve these aim and objectives through set of capacity building and mobility activities:1.
