Mobility of youth workers

There are two main objectives that we want to achieve with this training course. First of all with the activities we are planning to start a process of improving our participants' managerial skills. For that purpose, we will organize activities such as project cycle management, context analysis, needs/problem analysis, assessment of potential solutions, project design etc. Secondly, we are shall focus on community development which we shall relate to project management. For responding to the community needs how we can analyze the market, needs, sources etc. With all these, we believe all the participants will get the opportunity to face their local needs and find out global challenges; so they will find out how to contribute to sustainable growth and development in their local communities.
