Number of Working Days: 6 (excluding travel days)
Deadline: December 31st, 2021
The Project:
Brave New YOU – Reloaded aims at building capacities and trust among different youth communities to co-create together a more inclusive and open-minded Europe.
The project tackles the issues of hate speech and lack of participation of youth communities experiencing discrimination and exclusion. Through a process of capacity building, local and international activities, our youth workers, and youth organisations will develop competencies for reaching out to disadvantaged youngsters and communities. The project will empower these young people to become community leaders, to identify and deconstruct hateful narratives, and build more inclusive narratives for their communities.
Description of the event:
YEU International is opening a call for 5 facilitators for the “Brave New You – Reloaded” youth exchange in Thessaloniki, Greece, between the 6th and 13th of February 2022.
During this youth exchange, the participants will have the opportunity to develop their recommendations to experts and policy makers, based on the implemented activities and approaches for reaching out to disadvantaged young people, and the work done on the local level, throughout the Brave New You – Reloaded project.
The recommendations will target youth organisations and youth workers, and policy and decision makers. They will consider the types of activities young people appreciate and consider most effective and beneficial in their local realities, as well as the topics and aspects of activity that works best for them and their peers.
Moreover, during this event the youngsters will have the opportunity to consider the project in retrospect and evaluate how they influenced the activities, their own communities, and how this translates into the EU level.
Financial matters:
Fee for the facilitator is 60 EUR per day, a gross amount. We are foreseeing 6 working days in total.
