YOUTH DEVELOPMENT THROUGH CRE-ACTION

Description

Youth Development through Cre-Action” (YDCA) is a capacity building project involving 6 partner organizations from Europe (Greece, Italy, Spain), and North Africa (Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia). YDCA aims at addressing unemployment affecting disadvantaged youths (NEET youngsters, youths from poor rural areas, etc.) through a trans-continental cooperation targeted at producing and sharing educational contents and formats to spread skills and competences of creative and critical thinking as a way to better take advantages of existing skills and to forge them to cover the lack of basic skills in order to increase youth employability and social integration.

Objectives

In order to fulfil these aims, together with the schedule mobilities, the project will create the following results:

– 2 Training Format “The power of critical thinking” and “How to be creative”

– A “Creativity and Critical Thinking” Handbook which will merge the 2 training formats and
enriched with extra materials created by the Consortium and the feedback from the training
courses

– A YDCA e-learning course containing a module for each thematic area, interactive links and
self-assessment tools.

– A European and North African stakeholders network established through project website and local activities, that will continue to function beyond the project lifecycle.
