Objectives

The Youth Mobility "SEE THE KEY III" was developed during the Training Course "SEE THE KEY II", implemented by the Youth Vision Association in Constanta (6-12 September 2019). It was drafted by a team of 4 youth workers - from 4 partner organisations - UNITED SOCIETIES OF BALKANS, ASSOCIAZIONE DI PROMOZIONE SOCIALE YOUNG EFFECT, YOUTH VISION and LAS NINAS DEL TUL. Following the round tables and the implemented workshops, the consortium identified as common needs, addressed also in the project, the following: access to information to identify a potential job or learning activity according to certain domains of activity; techniques and competences in creating a CV for a specific job; opportunities to meet with young entrepreneurs from divers sectors; skills to overcome discrimination cases when it comes to enter the labour market; opportunities to increase their entrepreneurial culture; information related to programs/funds that can help them become entrepreneurs or enter labour market. The partners involved in the Training Course (USB, Young Effect, Las Ninas del Tul and Youth Vision) identified the common needs among marginalised youth explained above and in the last 2 days of the project they worked on setting the structure of this youth exchange, the sessions and the methods that were used by facilitators. The methods, materials (toolkit on how to build a social enterprise/project - SEE THE KEY II) and the results (local activities implemented) were presented during the youth mobility - SEE THE KEY III. A new partners was included (Meraki), with needs similar to those mentioned, which contributed to the finalisation of the proposal and the successful implementation of the planned activities. The purpose of the "SEE THE KEY III" project was to provide to 35 young people the competences to enter labour market and / or develop own business - access specific funds. The specific objectives of the project were: 1. Develop key competences in management / entrepreneurship among 35 young people from the 5 countries (35% NEETs), by sharing knowledge and information related to entrepreneurship, available funds and meetings with experts, during 9 days of mobility; 2. Support and guidance of 35 young people (at least 35% NEETs) in turning a hobby into a profitable, successful business by providing them opportunities to meet successful entrepreneurs, visit local social business during the exchange - and providing further assistance for the draft social businesses, during follow-up phase. 3. Raise awareness among marginalised youth (approx. 500) on opportunities related to professional development by implementing at least 5 dissemination events in all participating communities, during 4 months. The project had as objective also to equip youth with various soft skills such as effective communication, public speaking, negotiation and strategic planning skills.
