Aims & Objectives

Inclusion of young people with fewer opportunities and political participation are two important features in the new EU-Programme Erasmus+: YOUTH IN ACTION. As true democratic participation has the power to give a voice to all young people, but youngsters with fewer opportunities are still underrepresented in participation projects, the TC focuses on this overall challenge: How to involve young people with fewer opportunities in participation projects? How to give all young people a role in the design and implementation of projects and policies?
Objectives:
• Bring together youth workers and young people with experience from the two fields inclusion and participation who want to set up participation projects specifically involving inclusion groups;
• Share expertise and practices about inclusion and participation projects;
• Provide space for participants to discover the opportunities of the format of “Strategic Partnerships” (key action 2) within Erasmus+: Youth in Action;
• Create new inclusive participation project ideas within strategic partnerships to enable all young people to have a say in decision making on different levels.
Target Group
• The Project Greenhouse is open for voluntary and professional youth workers or active young people who plan to set up inclusive participation projects and long-term strategies in their organization within the frame of the Erasmus+: YOUTH IN ACTION Programme, especially in the format “Strategic Partnerships”.
• During the Project Greenhouse participants are invited to find partners among the participants of the Project Greenhouse to create ideas for common “Strategic Partnership” projects. Taking into account that participants may already have existing partner organizations they can either apply to the Project Greenhouse together with their partners to work on their planned “Strategic Partnerships”. Or participants can benefit from the seminar contents and developed ideas to later on put this inspiration into practice in their organization’s and their network’s reality.
• Participants should have experience either with inclusion projects or with participation projects (gained inside or outside YOUTH IN ACTION).
• Max. 30 participants from YOUTH IN ACTION Programme countries.
• Participants should be at least 18 years old.
• The working language is English. Partcipants should be able to work and set up projects in English. Participants are expected to be part of the full duration of the Project Greenhouse.
