Our seminar "ScoutNet 2016 - More Empowerment for Europe" is adressed to youthleaders and multipliers in youthwork (Scouting in particular). Participants are active, trained and experienced leaders in the scout organizations from DE, NL, PL, UK and LT. We aim on consolidating more and more the cirlce of those network-partners. With the help of this activitiy we will implement more concrete european elements and Europe itself in our activities in general. Our aims in particular are: - spread information and raise awareness within our network partners concenring the youth-political development on european level and the (potential) role of the youth associatons within this proces, - Empowerment of partner organizations and of the activitie's participants to involve and evolve the european aspects in our activities, not only by information but also by showing and experiencing tools to act (like youthpass), - raise the youth leader's awareness on their own important role in non-formal education - intensivly dealing with the topic and importance of non-formal education and evaluation of non-formal learning as well as participation of _all_ youth. - work on the aims of the Network and development them further. Make more and more youth leaders (who are working as volunteers) familiar with european and national youth ploicy and showing the link to our daily educational work in scouting. Participants are expected to undertand the youth political background and the dynamic development of european youth policy on the one hand and national youth policies on the other one. They are expected to experience and really understand the link between this political development and their practical work with young people in scouting - not only during international youth exchanges but also in their local environments.
