Objectives

Migration is a process that affects all age groups, but the most involved are young persons because they have physical capacity, are able to work, assume the risk of passing illegally the borders and barriers (sea, mountains, rivers). The profile of the majority of migrants is young people in age frame 17 35 years old, even for the migration flows between EU countries, the workforce is migrating to countries where the probability of finding a well-paid job is higher and living conditions, in general, are better. The reality is that many times those groups of people with a migrant background aren’t involved well or at all in the social and civic life of hosting communities, or they close themselves in groups with questionable aims and values. Youngsters with immigrant backgrounds miss many times opportunities offered by different local, national or European programs and projects because they aren’t in touch with delivery entities (NGOs, Institutions, Universities, local and national bodies) and don’t have access to this information, or don’t trust it. For raise of civic and social involvement of youth with a migrant background, the “L.E.N.O.B. - Leave No One Behind” Project aimed to improve the access to opportunities and participation at community life of the target group through the following objectives: • To develop 8 youth associative structures(Groups of People active in Youth work, NGO’s)of people with migrant background in 8 different European countries; • To engage and empower youth workers and youth with an immigrant background to be active in their community development ; • To create tools to develop youth work in disadvantaged communities in Europe: an international network of associative structures of people with migrant backgrounds (Groups of People active in Youth work, Youth Clubs, NGO’s) working in the field of social inclusion and active youth workers; a booklet with the activity of youth associative structures of people with a migrant background and described ways and approaches in working with this group of youth; Erasmus+ opportunities.
