Summary
Capacity-building in the field of youth projects are international cooperation projects based on multilateral partnerships between organisations active in the field of youth in the EU and countries associated to the Programme, on the one hand, and in third countries not associated to the Programme, on the other hand. For the latter, this action targets exclusively countries in Region 9 (Sub Saharan Africa).
Detailed Call Description
Projects shall aim both at, on one hand, supporting international cooperation in the field of youth and non-formal learning, as a driver of sustainable socio-economic development and well-being among youth organisations and young people and, on the other, at promoting the mobility of young people to encourage their active participation in society as well as to help them acquire and develop competences for life and for their professional future. In specific, projects shall:
- Raise the capacity of organisations working with young people outside formal learning;
- Promote non-formal learning in the eligible third countries not associated to the Programme, especially in organisations that target young people with fewer opportunities (through the development, testing and launching of schemes and programmes of non-formal learning mobility in Partner countries);
- Support the development of youth work in the eligible third countries not associated to the Programme;
- Foster the development, testing and launching of schemes and programmes allowing organisations to enhance non-formal learning mobility in the eligible third countries not associated to the Programme;
- Contribute to the achievement of the goals of the Youth Mobility for Africa flagship initiative. This initiative is part of the Global Gateway Africa-Europe Investment Package to increase strategic engagement between the EU and Africa on learning mobility and youth on both continents. The initiative contributes to the Youth Action Plan in External Action (2022-2027) and the commitments made at the 6th EU-African Union Summit in 2022.
- Support projects that promote the mobility of young people with a view to promoting their active participation in society as well as to helping them acquire and develop competences for life and for their professional future.
- Foster interregional cooperation;
- Enhance synergies and complementarities with formal education systems.
