The project idea was developed around the observation that a part of today's youth lacked social skills that were necessary for their personal improvement, social independence, and employability. Social skills deficiency held back these youth from seeking personal development at higher levels and also better chances in employability. In addition, there was a need to train youth in the field, and as such, it was supported the notion that social skills were a learned skill and they could be taught, and it was more than just having good manners. Social skills were one of the most important sets of skills youth developed, and they often served as predictors of future success. Social skills were also linked to job success, independence, and emotional well-being among all. Those with adaptive social skills often demonstrated superior ability to observe, problem solve, and respond in social situations and work-related situations. It was well observed that youth with well-developed social skills were likely to gain confidence in their abilities to approach situations and complete tasks more successfully. Social skills were also linked to employability opportunities, meaning that people who possessed a good level of social skills such as critical thinking, empathy, communication skills, etc., had more chances to obtain a job in general and to gain access to higher working positions in the future. The general aim of their project was to make understandable to the participants of their activity that social skills could be taught and they should be a vital element of today's youth to obtain better employability, a better stand in the community, and better chances of success in many fields of their life. The reasoning behind their motivation to design and implement the FORYOUTH project was the need to equip their youth with advanced social skills and to qualify youth workers with adequate competences in order to be able to train youth in this field. It had to be well understandable that whatever the level of education and competences, lack of social skills might bring obstacles to the further development of a person, and they needed to prepare and equip their youth with all available means to succeed in their life. There were many reasons why a person might have a social skills deficit. It could occur because of a lack of knowledge, such as the inability to acquire new skills, or because of a competency deficit. Sometimes, the person might have known how to perform the social skill, but they might have struggled to perform because of limited practice or inadequate feedback. There might have also been internal or external factors that interfered with the person performing the social skill, such as anxiety or chaotic surroundings. In their project, they identified the following social skills that were directly linked with employability, and they worked with their participants on: Basic Communication Skills: These included the skills to use body language, eye contact, hand gestures, and tone of voice to color the message they were trying to convey, clarity and concision in communication, and confidence. Empathy and EQ: Was the capability of people to recognize their own emotions and those of others, discern between different feelings, and label them appropriately. Interpersonal Skills: Interpersonal skills included the abilities of sharing, joining activities, dealing with other people, planning and organizing, initiative implementation, etc. Problem Solving Skills: Active listening, decision making, situation analysis, conflict resolution skills, etc. Accountability: Accountability was also essential because recognizing mistakes was an excellent way to indicate a conciliatory and cooperative attitude. The project partners were 6 experienced organizations from across Europe.
