Discover Act

In the new framework of DiscoverEU, young people are given a unique opportunity to explore Europe’s diversity, learn about its cultural heritage and history, and connect with people from all over the continent. Ex-participants may be enticed to look forward to enhancing opportunities and being supported to engage more as active European citizens in the field of youth – through through Erasmus+ and the European Solidarity Corps (ESC).

The Training Course is proposed to showcase the opportunities that actors who are still active in the youth field - starting off from their personal experiences, their individual motivations and the process of identifying societal needs in their community & beyond. This training will offer the next step to look at these experiences, motivations and needs from a different perspective and how those active in the youth filed can respond to their surrounding realities.

The objectives for this Training Course are:

• Enhance the observation skills and skills to interview people from the community to become aware of a societal need as the essential niche of a project
• Become aware of the advantages of being in an informal group or being supported within an organisation
• Get knowledge and awareness of what the European Solidarity Corps (ESC) & Erasmus+ framework are about
• Provide a basic introduction to project management as basic knowledge to acquire the knowhow to apply in the European Solidarity Corps (ESC) & Erasmus+ framework
• Providing support in taking the first steps in planning activities within the Erasmus+ and ESC framework
