The activities were carried out as part of the accreditation and strategic planning of the youth organization Young Folks LV. Since we are involved in youth work, it is important for us to collaborate with partners, create a sustainable system, provide opportunities for our youth and leaders, and implement strategic goals at the local, national, and international levels. In total, we implemented three activities: 6.05.-11.05. Youth Ehchange (Latvia) - Rebels with a Cause: Youth & Social Activism. Concentration of public speaking and youth activism. 26.05.-30.05. Training course (Latvia) - Money Matters: Sustainable Financial Models for Youth NGOs. 31.07.-05.08. Youth Exchange (Latvia) - School of life: creative, brave and active. A1 The aim of the youth exchange was to empower young people with skills, knowledge and values to take an action, encourage them to participate in the social life of their communities, realise their responsibilities towards the others, society and activate them as youth activists and changemakers. The objectives of the given action were: developing public speaking skills, rising awareness of social activism and social entrepreneurship as a tool for change , fostering intercultural exchange, encouraging active citizenship, enhancing collaboration and teamwork, exploring real-life activism practices, providing hands-on experience like debates, storytelling, and connecting young people to EU, European values and meaning of being European citizen. Within given action young people aged 15-18 from Latvia, Spain, Georgia and Ukraine worked together and shared their knowledge and experience. A2 The aim of the mobility of youth workers was designed to strengthen NGOs by building the financial knowledge and skills of their staff. We worked on the topics of income diversification, strategy building and ensuring sustainability within youth organisations, capacity building and best practices sharing, HR management in NGOs, youth centers running and ris-crisis management. The objectives of the action were: enhancing financial literacy; developing practical skills connected to grant management, income diversification, and accounting; promoting sustainability by strategy planning, effective and efficient HR management and youth center enlargements, encouraging collaborations between participant organisations and best practices and case sharings; strengthening compliance with financial regulations and donor expectations. As part of the project, the participants gained skills that will be useful in life – a life school – through showing initiative, participating in activities, creating independent workshops, and organizing events within the framework of the youth exchange. The participants also learned methods of non-formal education, got to know each other with peers from Lithuania and Finland, tried themselves in leadership roles, and gained new experiences and life skills by living in tents in nature.
