The partners expressed their mutual interest in creating a network based on strong partnerships aimed to connect more and exchange the good practices in relevant areas of their work. The project will unite youthworkers and youth around the common idea of changing the youth employment paradigm from urban to rural, which will empower youth to act and receive truly useful rewards as part of the work that they are doing. In addition to addressing challanges of lifr in the cities and discussing the issues of promoting a simple and healthy lifestyle, at the meeting partners will consider the possibilities of how to engage young people in developing organic gardening and , to encourage compassion, solidarity, and active attitude towards modern challenges. During the project participants will actively dive into topics and issues of issues of youth volunteering, social entrepreneurship, eco-tourism, self-sustainable farming, healthy living, and EU funding opportunities for future cooperation. Participants will share their knowledge and expertise in the field and try to find solutions for youth engagement in their activities. The project will last for 14months, start on February 2015 and end in March 2016. It will involve 3 meetings of youth workers and local youth , in Hungary, Belgium and Sweden. The meetings will be based on different combinations of outdoor activities (developing natural permaculture, field trips, yoga), educational trainings (seminars, workshops on transversal skills and innovative methods of youth work), learning opportunities of European instruments/certificates (Youthpass, Europass CV) and practical management education (fundraising for organisations on national and international level, grant writing, Erasmus+ opportunities presentations).
