You(th) Steer Inclusion is a two-year project that aims to demonstrate the true European values of solidarity and equal opportunities by enabling young people to improve the level of social inclusion in their environment, through practicing concrete social inclusion-related activities and obtaining education on how to work with various vulnerable groups. The project idea comes at a very relevant time, when Europe is not only recovering from the financial crisis, but is also facing another, even bigger, humanitarian crisis. The refugee crisis has not only made the EU reflect on its own solidarity, but it has also spiked up the attention towards the state and rights of young people and children in the whole situation, since integration and creating safe environments, as basic human rights, were at stake in some countries. On the other hand, the momentum was used to remind of other vulnerable groups in our society and the way they have been treated throughout the years , such as LGBTQ population, Children of Alcoholics, young people coming from broken families etc. The objectives of this project are :- to increase the level of awareness among young people about the existence of different vulnerable groups in society- to increase the level of understanding of the different realities and different needs that these vulnerable groups are facing - to introduce a methodology on creating a safe environment for any youth group, following effective and well-known principles that Nordgu has been practicing through the years ( how to create drug-free activities for young people, how to lead youth activity in a tolerant and nondiscriminatory way, how to motivate EU citizenship among young people, how to manage conflict situation, how to practice a rights-based approach etc)- to enable young people to create youth activities and set the tone for non-formal education environments based on the learned methodologies, and their own ideas , creative actions and activity proposals - to introduce a variety of European process and activities for young people, and facilitate the inclusion of the vulnerable groups in these processes- to offer the space for individuals from different European countries to live through European diversity and to develop their own interestsWe believe that this project will be able to put in practice the European values of solidarity, tolerance and equal opportunities, while giving young people an opportunity to expand their level of knowledge about their societies and their competences to work with diverse youth groups and activities. We will create a clear link between the work done in the project , with the work done on European level, and we will motivate a feeling of being European among the participants and the groups. Throughout the two-year period we are looking to including three volunteers from three different organizations/countries (UK, Italy and Portugal). The three volunteers will be able to work in Nordgu during overlapping periods, which will enable them to practice peer to peer learning and to ensure continuity in the work in the office of Nordgu. We look forward to host young, open-minded individuals who share our values and who are driven by creating free, safe and inclusive environments for young people. The type of activities that will be carried out through the project are closely connected to the objectives. The young people involved will be able to learn about different methodologies on the needs and realities of different vulnerable groups (LGBTQ , refugees, Children of Alcoholics etc), after which they will get to do practical work in setting the tone of safe environments on different youth events, through leading and organizing activities. The goal would be not only to provide quality education for and on vulnerable groups in our societies, but also to introduce various European processes and initiatives (Structured Dialogue, Erasmus + opportunities, internships and traineeships in EU institutions) and facilitate the groups' inclusion in them. The participants in the project will rely on non-formal education methods such as workshops, role plays, films, videos, peer to peer learning and many other creative approaches. The rationale of the project lies in its effects - the project directly contributes to the goals on social inclusion set out in the Europe 2020 strategy, but also has a wide international, national and local impact due to the ease at which the methods and activities can be transferred and reproduced at any level. All the ideas from the participants will be gathered in a publication reflecting the methods and activities that are contributing to creating free, safe and inclusive drug-free environments. This also makes it easy for the participants to practice what they have learned upon their comeback to their home countries.
