Details:
Analyzing our experience and our partners', we identified a number of weaknesses in the development of youth exchanges we can improve together. But we must also note, we detected strengths. We will develop a seminar to enhance the capacity of organizations that will better equipped to face the challenges of the programme Erasmus+: Youth in Action, and promote inclusion of young people, youth participation in Europe, especially young people with fewer opportunities in our future projects Erasmus + Youth, the quality of learning and its recognition (for both young people and youth workers)
General aims of the seminar are:
• To exchange good practices to improve youth exchanges.
• To focus on 2 key elements in youth exchanges: European values & intercultural learning.
Specific aims of the seminar are:
• Analyse weaknesses & strengths focusing on 2 key elements present in any youth exchange: European values and intercultural learning.
• Exchange best practices in youth work and youth exchanges regarding the improvement of preparation stage, visibility, DEOR and certification in order to create more quality projects in the future.
• Create a practical guide for creating quality youth exchanges based on above objectives.
• Promoting intercultural learning and European citizenship.
• Update our knowledge on Erasmus+: Youth in Action
• Enhance young people participation in all phases of a mobility project Erasmus+: Youth in Action, encourage initiative and entrepreneurship.
• Encourage certification of learning. The use of youth leaders & youth workers portfolio.
• Strengthen INTER’s network of European organizations working in Erasmus+: Youth in Action Programme; (having more partners and collaborators better prepared means to make better youth projects).
We will use formal and informal methods to maximize participation and cooperation, with games and group dynamics, expert presentations followed by analysis and discussion in small groups, creating activities for the implementation at a high school and university campus, intercultural nights and daily reflection group. We will make a study of the strengths and weaknesses of our youth exchange projects in detail, collect them and discuss best practices. We will include activities during the seminar that are itself a model of good practice. In the end, we will collect all the methods, strategies and best practices to create a practical guide with recommendations to be spread in English. Will disseminate this guide making public presentations to members and different promoters, sending copies to partner networks, which will be available online. We will monitor new youth exchanges that we will create with our partners from the seminar, using our practical guide to assess the results and the actual impact. The impact will be both locally, with visibility of expositions of the pratical guide and the project, broadcast media, activities with local people and regional and European level. Considering the impact of participating organizations and their partners and the extensive network of partners in the European network of AJ INTER, who will enjoy the use and disseminate best practices contained in the final products. We expect that this project will contribute to improving the quality of European mobility projects (especially youth exchanges) especially in those aspects that are not made properly (such as long-term effects, visibility, preparation / expectations participants). We also hope to improve aspects of European citizenship and intercultural learning (a large number of organizations implementing projects of Erasmus +: Youth in Action) which we believe are issues inherent in European mobility projects.
