Aims & objectives

The project focused on simple but crucial question: how to create and shape learning in order to define and
achieve impact in cooperation with the target groups. And in order to be able to achieve and to measure impact we have to really understand the process of learning.

In detail, the following sub-objectives can be derived from this:
- To increase the quality of learning spaces being offered by non-formal educational actors and as a
result to make non-formal educational activities more professional and measurable.
- To increase significantly understanding of impact measurement and the implementation of measuring
impact in general.
- To ensure the participation of disadvantaged youth and young adults in international mobility
projects.
- To deepen the understanding of learning processes in order to make it more natural and interesting,
therefore more gainful and successful.
- To bring to light a more professional NGO activism that can truly support and inspire young people. As
well as this, we expect the participating organizations to deepen their collaboration in order to
implement bigger projects.
