Rationale:
The project partner consortium cooperating with Business partners face situations were NGO representatives are lacking certain attitudes, knowledge and skills needed for effective and mutually beneficial cooperation with business sector. Project partners see, that in many cases NGO representatives are victimizing themselves and are seeking for “support or donations” for “sacred/holly” work they are doing. We believe that mutually beneficial cooperation, where NGO’s and Business organizations are at win-win situation is something to reach for. We want to promote concept of Social Economy in Lithuania and Other EU countries. For this we are initiating an international training course with the main goal to encourage participants to be ready and look for contact and effective cooperation with the business world.
Aim of the training course:
Supporting the professionalization of the NGO sector, through strengthening youth worker ability to foster social economy ventures and developing cooperation approach towards business.

3. Learn how to incorporate and communicate organisational goals into cooperation practices with business field.
4. Develop win-win approach in daily NGO practices, to strengthen the value proposition of the benefits created by the work of the NGO.
5. Provide youth workers with business know-how which could be used in NGO development.
