Mobility Taster for Inclusion Organisations

GET A TASTE OF MOBILITY PROJECTS In just 3 working days, we show you the possibilities Erasmus+ Youth has to offer for young people from disadvantaged backgrounds. An international project (youth exchange, voluntary service,...) might just be the life-changing opportunity for the disadvantaged young people you are working with: e.g. minorities, with special needs, with socio-economic difficulties, discriminated groups, in difficult situations, with limited opportunities... This Mobility Taster course gives you concrete examples of what is possible, brings you in contact with other inclusion organisations, shows you what funding is available specifically for inclusion projects and walks you step-by-step through the process in case you would like to give it a try. WHO IS THE COURSE FOR? This course is for NEWCOMERS to Erasmus+ Youth who are directly working with young people from disadvantaged backgrounds. If you never organised an international youth project with your target group before and would like to know what is possible, then this course is for you! This course is also open for applicants with special needs (contact SALTO Inclusion tony@salto-youth.net regarding support possibilities).
