Objectives

Through cooperation and conversations with several NGOs from our communities, we noticed that the ones that are trustworthy, that have strong teams and have an impact on our communities, are actually the ones with a strategic plan that they understand and stick to it. When developing this project, all project partners had different realities as some partners already had developed strategic plans and were using them as an essential tool in their work in the past; some partners were relatively newly established, some had new staff members, youth workers, and volunteers, and some had been adapting to the new needs in the community, which were not in their planning a few years ago. The main aim of the project was to empower youth workers and peer educators from all partners by improving their skills and competencies in the field of Strategic planning that will later lead to improved strategic vision and created strategic plan at each partner organization, with a special accent on developing and maintaining their peer-to-peer networks for the development of soft skills of NEET youngsters. Specific objectives of the project were : 1.) Introduction of Strategic planning and its importance to youth workers and peer educators 2.) Sharing practical tools of Strategic planning that will contribute to the professional development of youth workers and increasing existing capacities of partners 3.) Exploring the E+ program as an opportunity to achieve objectives of Strategic planning 4.) Fostering further international cooperation between partners 5.) Sharing experiences, positive examples, and practices between all partners
