Training Course
7-14 September 2021 | Pesaro (Italy), Italy
The Training Course "Social Transformation meets Community Work" will empower the youth workers by strengthen their understanding of processes of social transformation and increasing their competences in developing transnational initiatives - in the frame of the European Solidarity Corps Programme (ESC) – that aim to contribute to foster social change in local communities across Europe.
Therefore, the youth workers will participate in a e-learning programme and one residential training course in Italy on social transformation, strategic planning and project development. As a result, the participants shall be enabled to design, implement and evaluate their own ESC projects tailored to the needs of their communities.
The educational programme of the project is based on the experience of organizers, partner organizations and experts involved in transformative community work.
Objectives of the project
- To strengthen the understanding of youth workers on youth empowerment as a tool for social change
- To increase the use of systematic and long-term approaches to social change in community work
- To exchange good practices for youth empowerment work and social change among the participating organizations
- To establish transnational links between youth workers and translate them into project-based partnership for needs-based social transformation within the ESC framework
Themes addressed by the project:
- Youth empowerment and social transformation
- Needs based planning and long-term strategic planning
- ESC as a tool for transformative community work
The project shall result in the following:
- Competence development of 24 youth workers and young community leaders in youth empowerment for youth-led community development
- Integrating the use of specific tools for systematic and long-term approaches to community work within the partner organisations

Vicolocorto (Youth NGO)
VICOLOCORTO is an italian cultural youth association founded in 2006. It is non-profit and apolitical. The Association specializes in youth work and international mobility. It is based in Pesaro (Italy) and works at a regional level (Regione Marche) cooperating with private and public institutions.
The main feature of the association is the spirit and the offer of several international mobility opportunities in Europe (even if not only) for young people through European youth programs.
Furthermore, Vicolocorto is very active also locally thanks to events, workshops and English conversation meetings which are organized by youngsters for youngsters so that everybody can have a chance to prepare before going abroad.
