Details:
How can we encourage the recognition of skills acquired through youth exchange and volunteering?
Voluntary work gives young people confidence and a sense of responsibility, and also enables them to improve their social skills. Youth exchange programmes help young people become more open-minded and develop excellent intercultural skills. Not only young people, but also society in general consequently benefit from this.
But how can we convince people of this?
How can we raise awareness of the importance of skills acquired through youth work for employers and educational institutions? How can we raise young people's awareness of the importance of what they have learned? How can we make the benefits visible and communicable?
You are invited to take part in a think tank in Biel to reflect on and explore key issues and to look for solutions and share your own experiences. The Open Space method to be employed as well as the highly diverse group of participants excepted guarantee that innovative and realistic ideas will be discussed and effective solutions found.
The best projects will be implemented after the event. They will help make volunteering an attractive option for young people, and help remove any obstacles in their way of participating in youth exchange programmes. That's why we're inviting some 200 participants from Switzerland and Europe to participate in a novel, educational conference, which will take place in Biel on 27 and 28 October 2011.
