Objectives

A key focus of the project was social fears and how European youth can understand, analyze, and deal with them on a daily basis. Even while young people are provided with many opportunities as exchanges and training courses, most youths live in the shadows of fear, making it challenging to find a job, study and make important decisions about the future. Thus, our project was focused on the following social fears: 1. Fear of public speaking. 2. Fear of being alone 3. Fear of failure. 4. Fear of criticism 5. Fear of responsibility and leadership During the project, we wanted to deal with theoretical information about these fears and give helpful advice on how to work with and overcome these fears. Therefore, the objectives of the project were: 1)To acquaint participants with the above-mentioned social fear and help them to overcome it, which will improve the level of social adaptation, self-realization and employment of young people. 2)To promote the realization of Sustainable Development Goals, namely Good Health, Decent Work and Quality Education. 3)Exchange cultural experience, networking for future cooperation, and promoting Erasmus+ programmes in the homeland and foreign countries. 4)Our additional goal was to popularize Responsible Consumption as one of the Sustainable Development Goals. So, during the project, we were supposed to live and work according to the rules of an environmentally conscious lifestyle, refuse plastic packages and use paper responsibly.
