Research and statistics estimate that unemployment is the greatest social injustice among citizens, especially when it concerns young people. Unfortunately, this social injustice is the scourge of the nations of the EU and is constantly evolving . The deepening of the problem of young people is the lack of employment in local area - especially when these are small towns and villages , making their often like "no chance - people". Youth unemployment is experienced as harmful process that leads to anxiety, guilt, fatalism and defeatism, low self-esteem increases and the inability to creative use of free time. The aim of the seminar is to seek new roles for NGOs in the context of the labor market and their relationship with the business and how to employ the private sector, dissemination of data and the ability to analyze them, to strengthen social dialogue and cooperation between citizens of the new UE members in the context of the overall objectives, ensure young people with information on activities and opportunities for cooperation and participation in volunteer work and employment, spreading good practice, combining the results of the projects and participate in seminars with the obvious goal of increasing the pool of partners for future cooperation, the development of the network and the end result reliable, international cooperation organizations in different planes. We believe that this proposal combines enhances the goals of the program ERAZMUS + and promoting a set of topics discussed. The project will be implemented within 16 - 08/24/2014. The project will be attended by 44 participants from 21 youth organizations and 4 trainers / facilitators. 20 participants reside in EU countries (Poland, Spain, United Kingdom, Greece, Estonia, Romania, Hungary), two are from the pre-accession country - Turkey, 11 from Mediterranean countries (Algeria, Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, Tunisia) and 11 of them from the Eastern Partnership countries (Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan). In total in the project we have representatives of 17 countries, which allow for reliable statistical study and in-depth analysis of the issues of the project. This cross-section of participants guarantees discuss global problems and draw appropriate conclusions. According to the latest research about 5 million people in the EU (2.2% of the workforce) live in a country other than their homeland. The trend is upward, but not as dynamic as the number of citizens from "third countries" taking jobs offered on the EU market (3.8% of the workforce in the EU). Therefore, the inclusion of representatives of these countries have deemed necessary achieving reliable results of the project. Participants are youth workers and youth leaders. Yhe project will be mainly in the form of workshops, but topics will also be discussed in lectures and panel discussions, presentations prepared by participants in an interactive discussion and exchange of experiences. A comparative analysis will be applied to the accumulated material required to draw conclusions and develop methods of strategic partnerships for future activities of the organization. After this project, we expect to: - Promote active citizenship among young people with whom we work; - The development of solidarity, tolerance and mutual understanding among young people from different countries; - Overcoming the distrust of cultural differences and between individuals; - The creation of new partnerships and networks to strengthen and deepen relationships with existing partners; - The exchange of good practices - Learning how the existence of the modern labor market
