Open doors for youth

To develop and run Erasmus+ project with organizations from different countries is realy a great work. But behind this aspect we know that for a successful project, cooperation between partner organizations is very important. Sometimes the lack of cooperation correlated with the fact that we don’t know well our partners or don’t have a large organizations network may affect seriously the project writing process, its quality and good implementation.
To strengthen partnerships and the quality of Erasmus+ projects, our contact making event Open Doors For Youth aims to provide support for participants who want to organize youth projects in the future and will create the opportunity for them to create strong partnerships between organizations across Europe within an intercultural experience. The project provides participants a favorable framework to establish new contacts and partnerships, to deepen their knowledge about Erasmus+ programme, especially youth mobility field and to improve competences in project writing and project implementation.
The second aim of the project is to focus on the employability ofyoung people with fewer who are in the risk to become part of NEETs young people category. The projects that we will design during our partnership building activity will be dedicated for young people with fewer opportunities and NEETs to broaden their study and job perspecties facilitating their entry on the labour market.
