We are happy to report that our objectives declared in the application were fully reached. We have significantly increased our capacity to provide high quality training on organisational level to reach our main objective: boost team members' personal and collective competencies to support, engage, connect and empower youngsters as active citizens. We grew our transnational expertise meeting the analyzed needs in Education, training, and youth work: strategically drive the transformation in co-creation with multi-stakeholders; develop innovative creative materials to (re)engage youngsters, boost the quality of our work and the skills of team members. These results were delivered in co-creation with regional stakeholders and global Associated Partners that supported us, participating in Advisory Board meetings, providing training in Work Package 2, upgrading Non-formal education materials, contributing in piloting youth-led projects locally and disseminating results of the project globally. Together we have learned, reflected, grown in impact, and realized local projects for social inclusion and green sustainability.
As a consortium, we had four main ambitions: 1) Address interconnected global challenges—migration, inequalities, distrust in institutions, environmental crises, and the pressure on solidarity from Ukrainian war refugees, especially in Eastern Europe. We aimed to strengthen personal and economic resilience, upgrade our portfolio based on servant leadership, grassroots principles, and the power of art and sport to engage the non-engaged. 2) Bridge differences in partner maturity and expertise, moving beyond local projects to act as drivers of transformation—engaging strategically with business and government, aligning youth passions with stakeholder agendas for true co-creation. 3) Increase our relevance to Associate Partners, using their expertise to raise quality and recognition. 4) Leverage outputs to our 300+ schools and 50+ CSOs. These ambitions addressed our needs: boosting quality, gaining recognition, engaging youth, co-creating with stakeholders, building capacity, and implementing impactful projects in education and youth work.
