Quality & Innovation in International Youth Work

<< Objectives >>The initiative is essential for the entirety of the youth sector and has an impact on the local, national and European levels. The project addresses three main problems: unacknowledged ecological footprint created by international youth work, complicated access to the programme for newcomers and lack of involvement and support of participants with fewer opportunities. The initiative aims to find the source of why the problems persist and work on possible tools to combat these issues.<< Implementation >>The strategic partnership consists of 6 activities and 4 phases: Planning and preparation, Implementation, Monitoring and Evaluation, Dissemination and exploitation of the results. There will be 3 transnational meetings to evaluate the progress of the project, one training course, one blended mobility and local workgroups.<< Results >>Three main toolboxes/good practice guides will be created that will become an everyday part of the organization: TOOLBOX: How to map organizational ecological footprint and reduce/compensate excessive CO2. TOOLBOX: Simplifying the process of entering the programme for individuals and organizations. TOOLBOX: Increasing inclusiveness for participants with fewer opportunities, minorities, refugees.
