Setting up a competitive, dynamic and healty social environment for EU citizens has become an important European issue in the recent years. Pursuing the main objectives of the Strategy EU 2020, for smart sustainable and inclusive growth, we advocate for improving employment opportunities and reduction of the share of early school leavers. Dealing with young dropouts and unemployment especially among the young generation represents one of the core problems of today's Europe. The number of unactive youngsters - NEET's (not in education, employment or training) in the modren Europe is still very high. Early school leavers tend to face problems in finding a job and are ussually not involved in participation in active society. The consequences of early school dropout are usually related to social exclusion and poverty. Our main objective is to improve the level of key compenteces and skills for young people, especially those with fewer opportunities, needed for the competitive entrance to the labour market and cuntributing to a cohesive society. With that purpose we will analyse existing programs of participating partners, exchange experience, reveal good practises in the field of youth work, prepare, develop and promote an improved and complex model of approaches and innovative contents in the field of career guidance for youngsters.On the one hand, our target group are vulnerable young people, especially NEET, with their specifics that require special approaches and on the other, youth workers who are dealing with those youngsters. We wish to empower both target groups with skills needed for the best possible outcome of the projects. Specific number of cooperating participants are mentors from each partner countries.
