Objectives

Nowadays, in addition to economic union, European Union literally takes the cultural unity as principle and it plays the role of a structure which tries to improve in every piece of culture with this conception. Today when we look the culture phenomenon, we can see one of the most important piece of this is the language phenomenon. European Union which set target on multilingualism makes many efforts in this regard and also tried to promote the importance of knowing foreign languages. Importance of knowing a foreign language is increasing too. The situation that our countries have and the understanding that European Union is adopted have been the starting point of our project. One of the most important goals of Erasmus+ programme is to increase the key competencies that an individual has. One of the most important competencies is the proficiency of self-expression in different languages and native language. Today, foreign language skills are one of the most needed issue of job seekers especially for the young people, who are studying at universities or finishing their school soon. The aim of the project was to develop the level of competences of young people in the awareness about the importance of European languages and increasing the chances for youth with fewer opportunities in the labour market. Our objectives were: 1. to develop the knowledge of the importance of European languages among the 35 youngsters, from Austria, Romania, Turkey, North Macedonia, Italy, Albania and Greece (participants of the project), until the end of the project; 2. to develop attitudes and abilities to use European languages, to arise the interest and curiosity for different languages for the 35 youngster until the end of the project 3. to develop the abilities to use European languages for the future career among 35 youngsters participants in the project until the end of the projects
