EuroAsian Empowerment
EuroAsian Empowerment
Start date: Oct 1, 2013,
The project EUROASIAN EMPOWERMENT aims at exchange of experience, sharing good practice and support to youth work in Asia and Europe. It connects 4 partners from Europe (KERIC, Slovakia, ADICE, France, LINK, Italy, OZ Brontosaurus Modry Kamen, the Czech Republic) and 4 partners from Asia (CSDS, Vietnam, Volunteer Spirit Association, Thailand, Dejavato foundation, Indonesia, Khmer Youth and Social Development,Cambodia). The project reflects the needs of European partners for sharing practice and intercultural inspiration and the needs of Asian partners for a pool of trainers with experience in non-formal learning approaches as well as a tool to educate Asian trainers. During the project, 48 Asian and 8 European trainers will be trained in methods of non-formal education, 16 youth workers will do job-shadowing in partner organisations and 8 Asian young people will take part in youth mobility projects. By the end of the project, a training module of a training of trainers to be used in Asia will have been created and tested, a strong exchange of experience and good practice will have taken place among the partners and youth with fewer opportunities will have been empowered through international mobility. The project will empower trainers-to-be in Asia, youth workers in partner organisations and young people involved. It will have a positive impact on the local community in each participating organisation as well as the quality of youth work in Europe and Asia.
