Anka Youth Group

Anka Youth Group is a newly established informal group of young people based in Ankara, Türkiye.

Our aim is to create youth-led non-formal learning opportunities that help young people develop digital skills, critical thinking, employability skills, intercultural awareness and active participation in international youth activities.

The group is currently preparing its first Erasmus+ Youth Exchange. During the preparation process, we are conducting a needs assessment among young people aged 18–30 to better understand their experiences and concerns regarding artificial intelligence, future careers, digital skills and the changing world of work.

We believe that young people should be actively involved in identifying their own needs, designing project activities and sharing project results with their communities.

As a newly established group, Anka Youth Group has not yet implemented an Erasmus+ project under its own name. However, members of the group have personal experience with international youth mobility and intercultural learning activities.

We are interested in building reliable long-term partnerships with youth organisations and informal groups across Europe, especially for Erasmus+ Youth Exchanges based on genuine youth participation and non-formal learning.
