Nonformal Youth Summer Exchange

The context that determined this project is represented by the needs of the young people in small communities, to offer them learning alternatives to the formal system of education, as their needs are various and complex but the traditional system prepares them only in part for the future. The future means a job or a career and furthermore, the European and global context in which a job can be applied to. The project comes as a follow up and a valorisation of the previous experience of the 2 organizations involved, experience that will be applied in a nonformal transnational context.
