SALTO-YOUTH EuroMed & Good Practices - About us

SALTO-YOUTH ... Stands for "Support and Advanced Learning & Training Opportunities" within the Youth in Action programme. This is a network of 8 regional and thematic Resource centres set up by the European Commission in order to improve the quality of projects within the Youth in Action programme by providing support, trainings and information to National Agencies.

Specifically SALTO-YOUTH EuroMed supports and reinforces the Euro-Mediterranean Youth cooperation by offering trainings, events, educational tools and practices, support to the EuroMed Youth Units, the network and our partners.

We are hosted in INJEP (National Institute for Youth and Non-formal Education) since August 2000 and we are part of the French National Agency for the Youth in Action programme. In cooperation with National Agencies and EuroMed Youth Units, we organise thematic trainings, seminars and conferences on EuroMed Youth priorities. These enable participants to share, to test, to analyse, to transfer and to develop new project ideas, new partnerships and to implement these priorities in their future projects. Moreover, our Resource Centre is also in charge of compilation and dissemination of educational tools and practices in the field of youth and training, to create a common memory.
