During project implementation stage 3 young people will be working with human rights and social innovations programs, as well as with ethical media program and social program called Social taxi. Our main aim is to create opportunity for youth not only to develop common competences such as responsibility, initiative, active participation, the ability to learn, inter cultural learning, dissemination of good practices, etc, but also by direct interaction with vulnerable groups and work with social innovations, strengthen youth world view and understanding that they themselves can create changes in local, national or international levels. Through non-formal education methods and experiential learning we will encourage young people to work not only with the organization's programs, but also to look for opportunities for self-realization, development and implementation of their own personal projects.We believe that this project will make very positive impact on the identity of the young person and his/her professional development as well as the growth of his/her innovative and socially responsible personality.
