Objectives

The project “ Code Communication: Tools for Successful Youth Work” aims to build cross-sectoral communication, networking and dissemination capacities of youth NGOs and youth-related social enterprise, so that they improve local support systems for youth work and non-formal learning. We improve the capabilities of the partners to promote ourselves in a way that it raises our cross-sectoral recognition, which is a key step in starting and maintaining local-level cooperation among NGOs, institutions, local business and local governments to support youth activities. The project answers the common need of our partners to become more effective in communication and networking with the official and institutional and business sectors, preparing youngsters better for the requirements of employment or starting a business, supporting the other sectors in integrating young employees, especially the ones disadvantaged and at risk, into their working environments and channeling needs and representing interests of our target groups towards the decision makers. We identified communication skills and tools as a core need, the improvement of which can have a catalyzer effect in all these areas. The main objective of the project is to increase the capacity of youth NGOs’ and social enterprises’ staff, by supporting it in improving its communication skills within and outside their organisations. This will help to create new and/or maintain successful relationships related to cross- sectoral initiatives. The specifics goals of the project are: - The participants to be presented during the training course tools and best practises to improve their communication skills; - to create a real-life situation for the participants to pitch their ideas in front of representatives of different institutions, business or society.
