Date du début: 1 nov. 2015, Date de fin: 3 avr. 2017 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

This project arose from a common target of 4 organizations that fight for the social inclusion of young people. This objective is to provide new tools to achieve empowerment and social training of children and young people with fewer opportunities through the mobility of young volunteers and exchange of experiences in the field of youth between European and Latin American countries.On the one hand, two associations from Argentina and Peru were aware that they needed support to complement education and assistance already provided to children and youth for years to achieve its main objective that is the social inclusion of young people with fewer opportunities. They wanted to improve the quality of their work acquiring innovative tools from European countries with more experience in the field of non-formal learning and youth training.On the other hand, two organizations from Spain and Italy were aware of their ability to cooperate with other organizations in Partner Countries to help them to achieve their goals, not only by providing innovative and quality tools, but helping them to adapt these tools to their cultural features.Youth empowerment workshops will be held with European non-formal learning tools, with the help of 4 volunteers (EVS) who will be sent to the organizations in Argentina and Peru . Also, it will be done a study on the importance of cultural factors to achieve more flexible and universal non-formal learning tools.In addition, 4 youth workers from the Argentinean and Peruvian organizations will participate in a job-shadowing period in the Spanish and Italian organizations in order to see the daily work carried out with young people there and learn new techniques of non-formal learning.Finally, a seminar will be held at the final phase of the project about youth empowerment, where these new flexible tools that will result from the process will be presented.Thus, the four entities will acquire new methods of the youth and children empowerment, tested and adapted to participants with different cultural features. Therefore, these tools will be enough flexible for use with young people from any country or region.The beneficiaries of this project will be youth and children participating in the workshops, as well as youth workers and volunteers involved in the project since they will acquire new tools in the field of youth. The impact will also reach other young people and youth workers from other parts of Europe and Latin America through dissemination of the project and the multiplier effect of young people themselves.
