Partnership Building Activity: "WORK IN PROGRESS"
Partnership-building Activity
29 February - 4 March 2012 | Denmark
Every youth exchange has a huge potential towards increased employability chances and entrepreneurship for young people. Are you interested in focussing on and deepening out these topics in your next exchange?
BACKGROUND
In recent years most European countries have had an increase in youth unemployment. This development has been further increased by the economic crisis in Europe and the rest of the world. The European Commission has with the Youth on the Move strategy stressed the urgent need to tackle the problem and encouraged the use of the existing mobility programmes, including the Youth in Action Programme, to increase young people’s employability and enhance their creative cultural and innovative capabilities towards entrepreneurship.
AIM
To build up partnerships for future youth exchanges focussing on entrepreneurship and employability.
OBJECTIVES
- To develop international youth exchanges focussing on entrepreneurship and/or employability
- To explore, exchange and discuss different ways how a youth exchange can contribute to employability and entrepreneurship.
- Share and explore ideas, experience and areas of common interest in the intercultural settings
This partnership building activity will provide you with support for partner finding, the project idea development and project implementation. A possibility to discover the employability and entrepreneurship dimensions in your projects!
