Do you want to know more about the processes that improve youth participation? You want to set up a Youth Participation Activity (Erasmus+) but you are not familiar with the main criteria to prepare a good project? Do you want to meet and exchange on the topic of citizen participation with young people from France, Luxembourg or from French-speaking Belgium ? You are working on the inclusion of young people with fewer opportunities and you’re lacking means to ensure their participation in your projects? You are looking for French-speaking international partners to organize a meeting or a youth project, but you don't know how to find them, or where to start ?

Then this training has been made for you ! 

The Bureau International Jeunesse is pleased to invite you to a three-day training session on quality criteria for youth participation. You will also receive information on funding opportunities through the Erasmus+ call for Youth Participation Activities.

Youth Participation Activities are aimed for young people aged 13 to 30 who want to make their voice heard in society with or without the support of an organization. This training also offers the opportunity to meet people who share a vision of citizenship and youth engagement and to exchange around these themes.

If you are interested, apply to learn more !
