About project
The project “Youthworker 2.0” aimed at supporting youth leaders, workcamp leaders and trainers to improve their work with youth, assuring and developing quality of their activities. Three Training Courses focused on raising competences of these target groups and support sharing of experience. Each Training course was designed for 24 participants from 6 European organisations (INEX-SDA – Czech Republic, ELIX – Greece, Egyesek – Hungary, Legambiente – Italy, XCHANGE – Scotland, Young Researchers of Serbia – Serbia).
This project was supported by Erasmus + programme.
Summarised final reports are at disposal in English or Czech.
