"CAUSELAND" step-by-step guide for establishing your NGO
Practical and easy to use step by step guide for establishing and managing an NGO.
Aims of the tool
There is a need for a medium-term strategy for the further development of European youth work and a strong vision that is based on sustainability. One of the main factors in achieving sustainability in any NGO is building a team of people who work together, contribute according to their strengths and see a career path in the NGO sector. One of the main challenges facing the entire sector is finding the right people committed to the causes and keeping them in the sector.
With the project “Get to know the NGO sector. Lead the change” Bfree (Bulgaria), together with CONCEPTI (Bulgaria), NORTH (Iceland), GEYC (Romania) and TuF1rst (Italy) aimed to create a clear process for the selection, training and 'onboarding' of youth in NGOs across Europe, to lead to a more sustainable development of the sector and more opportunities for young people in terms of their professional development.
