Objectives

There is a huge need in youth organisations to have empowered young people in their leadership, who are able and willing to take the responsibility for the activities of the organisation in order to play an important role in the life of the communities and societies. Young youth workers need more competence on organisational management, they need to understand how they can create and run successful projects and how they can act as real leaders. This project idea was developed in a multicultural environment by experienced youth workers from Hungary, Spain, Turkey, the United Kingdom, Bulgaria, Lebanon, Palestine, Morocco, Montenegro and Bosnia and Herzegovina. We believe transnationality will help fulfilling the aims and objectives of this project, by providing a bigger picture of the European, the Mediterranean and the Balkan youth work and giving the opportunity to reach more diverse youth groups. The main aim of the training course is to develop the competences of youth workers to engage and empower them to take up leadership positions and to equip them with tools to lead a youth organisation. Our Objectives: - To identify the role of youth work in our societies and to understand the importance of youth workers - To provide participants with different tools to acquire knowledge and to develop skills and competencies in organizational management - To introduce effective communication, leadership and teamwork techniques - To develop competences to implement tools, non-formal and informal educational methods of decision making and strategic thinking - To provide space for participants for discussion and sharing best practices and to develop their leadership skills and competences using tandem method - To improve knowledge about Erasmus+ Programme as a tool for enhancing the international dimension of youth work through capacity building activities The venue place of the project is Kfardebian, Lebanon.
