An open call for 26 youth workers and trainers from all Erasmus+ youth programme countries to join a mobility of youth workers "Pay It Forward" which aims to bridge the gap between NGOs by encouraging knowledge exchange, increasing the use of digital tools, and fostering long-term partnerships that amplify the collective impact of youth work. This seminar is co-funded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union and organised by Euroactive NGO from Turkiye.
About the Seminar
In today's interconnected world, many NGOs work independently, leading to inefficiencies and missed opportunities for collaboration. Pay It Forward aims to address this by promoting knowledge sharing, increasing the use of digital tools, and fostering long-term partnerships that enhance the collective impact of youth work.
The project strives to strengthen cooperation between partner organisations by sharing best practices in digitalisation and facilitating networking opportunities. It focuses on co-developing strategies that improve the use of digital tools in youth work, helping organisations modernise their approaches to communication, outreach, and project management.
Objectives:
1. Encourage partner organisations to share methods, tools, and successful strategies that boost digital competencies in youth work.
2. Equip participants with digital tools to enhance communication and outreach efforts, ensuring greater visibility and impact for their organisations' activities.
3. Build a foundation for continued cooperation between the partner organisations beyond the duration of this project.
