Objectives

The main aim of our organization is to ensure proactive involvement and to provide equal access to knowledge for all members of society, especially underprivileged young people. In this spirit, we encourage young entrepreneurship and private initiative, supporting long term unemployed youths through mentoring and linking their skills with the current needs of the employment market. It is our believe that employees must be managed in a way that will motivate them to fulfill their ability to achieve at a high level, which is mutually beneficial for both themselves and their organizations. In addition, it is fundamental that young people to get familiar with the principles and the basic elements of proper organizational management and its inspirational implementation in any organization. This is an area where the region of Thessaly has rather poor results. According to the above, our main target for this project is to encourage the establishment of youth organizations in the European region, which will be in a position to operate upon a proper management basis, via the development of a theoretical training platform, in parallel with the practical application of organizational and administration techniques. The project participants will acquire innovative skills in the field of organizational management and administration both in the form of theoretical training which will be delivered by the project’s trainers, and in the form of a knowledge and experience exchange which will take place between the participants. The beneficiaries will have the opportunity to update their knowledge and skills, in such a way that their abilities are directly applicable to the current employment market demands, offering a substantial advantage for their personal and professional development. The participating organizations (especially ours), will benefit from experienced and fully trained executives with organizational and managerial skills, and the ability to establish, develop and administer an organization in an innovative way. Main target of the project is to reinforce through team activities, both intercultural and interpersonal communication between different countries, leadership, team building and ability of presentation and management. On an interpersonal level, the project participants will strengthen their ability to communicate, and work in partnership within an international team, in a multilingual environment, establishing sustainable networks for exchange of good practice.
