Title of the project is Team/Work, these two words represent the two main goals of the project, which is working in a team helps develope competences, and these will develop so they can also be used in the workplace.
The main goal of the project is to present to the active students their skills and competences, and to show them that these key competences can be developed by actively working for the community. The other main goal of the project is to show the participants that the developed competences can help them in their carrier, by improving the rate of their employment. The secondary goal of the project to create a platform, in which active students can meet and share experiences from different cultures.
The project participants will gain knowledge about skills and competences which they have already developed, or can develop as student council members, these key competences will be identified and related to the labor market. The students who participate in this event will have information about their skills, and will have an overview about using these in their everyday life and in their future workplace
Sixty people will be participating in this event, including 3 group leaders from each organizing country. Participating students are aged 14-19, and they are active members of their community, by working in the student council.
All organizing partners will choose their participants according to a cryteria, they will prepare them for the event by meeting with the 3-4 times before the event. This will be a key element in the advance planning visit, because we will use the information gathered in the meetings beforehand.
The event is built on a daily basis, by having a curve from the present to the future, which means the day starts talking, and discussing about the present, then in small groups the work will be about present and future, the guest speakers will only speak about the future and the labor market. The active day of the event will be about brainstorming and working on international projects.
The short term effect of the project will be seen immediately seen after the end of the event, because the participating students will have motivation, to make new projects and to work more for their community/school.
The midterm effect of the project will be the new international projects, which will be discussed in the last active day of the project.
The long-term effect will be seen in a few years, when the students end their education, and start working in the labor market. Because of the new skills and competences acquired this will help the improvement of the employment rate in the region/country.
