Aims & objectives

It was aimed at teaching youth workers how to create a network and how a network work. The high unemployment rate in Brussels was focused on during the project. Because EDI is a Brussels-based organization working on youth and business, it fits the aim of the NGO.

Participants from Hungary, Portugal, Turkiye, Italy, Romania, Bulgaria, Lithuania, Croatia, Czechia, and Spain attended the project including Belgian participants from local. The target group of the activity was youth workers and NGOs working on unemployment, networking, and youth.

Training methods used & main activities

During the training, formal and non-formal education methods were used together. Discussion sessions were implemented to understand what a network is and share experience and knowledge among participants. Group works were designed for brain-storming parts. Presentations were done to suggest activities for the network we established until the end of the project.
