"YEP! Youth Empowerment Priorities " has been coordinated by the Italian association ICSE &Co. With a total of 14
organisations from Programme and Partner Countries of Erasmus+. This project consisted of a mobility activity of youth workers
to participate in a training course on Human Rights; the participants group was composed of individuals between 18 and 35
years, the gender equal participation has been guaranteed even if we had a higher presence of women. Mobility took place in
Florence between 23rd to 31st August 2015.
The methodology used was based on non-formal education, trainers have promoted the active and constructive participation of all
participants providing them with the opportunities to learn and make direct experiences that have meet their needs and
expectations in the best way possible. The project has provided games (energiser, role game), visits (Uffizi, local NGO such as
Nosotras, Avis, Libera, Arcobaleno Onlus, Cooperativa Il Cenacolo and a representative of Mali refugees in Florence),
discussions (debates moderate by trainers), workshops (on Erasmus+ and project managing), multicultural activities (dance,
music, food, cinema, meeting with Mali refugees) in order to work on the theme of human rights, diversity, language, culture,
equality and migration.
YEP, in correspondence with the specific objectives set, had allow participants to learn to broaden their views and reasoning
through informal learning and practical experience on a diverse and rich cultural environment.
Participants have developed new and different skills through the project and are able to use it in their daily and professional life.
Skills, such as:
- use english in order to communicate and carry out the tasks, improve the ability to communicate in a foreign
language: listen and learn words and ways to express themselves in English and if possible in the languages of
countries participating in the project;

how to reach media with a critical approach evaluating what to learn, how to improve themselves and to work in
teams, manage and resolve conflicts in a working group, taking into account the opinions of others.
All this have taught youth workers involved to evaluate what they have learned, and allowed them to make contacts for
future projects and collaborations for the organizations they belong.
In short, through the project, they not only have acquired new personal and professional skills, but have improved the
resources they already have. At the same time, project have encouraged teamwork, creativity, initiative and active
participation.
Main results are youth workers more tolerant, open and engaged by the society they live in order to create positive
change and social improvement through non-formal education and interact with other countries youth organizations.
Impact and results of the project was measured by the evaluation of the participants in a daily base during the
mobility and a final evaluation (questionnaires), moreover we have asked and received feedback from all the actor
involved in the project.
Participants are now more aware of multiculturalism and human rights issues, ready to take action in their daily life
and in their association, and they have improved their personal and professional skills.
Participant organizations have now a new network to promote and realize new projects, moreover their workers are
now more aware on how to use Erasmus+ opportunities and how to write and manage a project.
At applicant level the impact is a better understanding and manage capabilities of erasmus+ programme and projects
especially regarding the mobilities of individuals, this can enhance the quality of the future work of ICSE&Co.,
moreover it gaves the opportunity to strengthen their relations with local entity and create a new international
networking.
Locally and regionally the impact has been to show to some local entity such the University of Florence, Regional
Agency for the right to study, NGOs the opportunities of erasmus+ in which they can be involved directly and
indirectly, creating new forms of partnership.
In order to disseminate the project we have decide to produced articles to share via local daily newspaper and social
media, web sites of the organizations involved not only partner organizations but also all the network that ICSE&Co
has.
