Objectives

Nextgen Leaders aims to create a network of Youth workers and organisations capable of effectively connecting youth with their communities, and with the EU in a participatory and inclusive way. The Empowerment of Youth is the ultimate aim of this project. In order to enhance a long-term, profound change in this sense, we need the supporting actors of this change to be prepared and competent. For this reason, the project defined three specific and measurable goals, which, as revealed by the consortium experience, are the areas where it is most needed to concentrate efforts for improvement and development. 1)The first specific objective of the project is to strengthen active and inclusive democratic participation among young people, fostering alternative ways of civic engagement and youth participation in decision-making processes. 2)The second objective of this project is to offer ,high-quality training NFE opportunities to the Youth work personnel to equip the Youth workers to better support young individuals and youth-led initiatives. The competencies that will be improved in the training reflect the key areas defined by the ETS of Youth workers and will focus primarily on the soft skills area. 3)The third specific objective of the project is to innovate several aspects of the Youth practice on the topic of Youth empowerment. By implementing innovative methodologies and utilising modern tools, this project introduces to organisations, Youth workers and Young leaders alternative, more efficient ways to foster advocacy, democratic participation and project cooperation.
