ΠΕΡΙΓΡΑΦΗ ΠΡΟΓΡΑΜΜΑΤΟΣ

Association of the European Institute of Development and our partners from
other organizations, we found that young people need expert guidance and a
demonstration of the opportunities before them. We want to focus on the
opportunities that young people have before they go to college, what value
involvement in youth work brings, and what value all these activities add to
gaining employment. Volunteer work and active participation in NGOs have a
huge impact on the lives and later decisions of young people. The European
Federation for intercultural learning and their research clearly shows, that
there is a very strong and positive correlation between involvement in youth
organization work and education non-formal education and later employment
opportunities for young people.
Even today, one hears some employers complain that schools are not keeping
up with educating people in the skills needed in the labor market and are
afraid that job candidates lack the skills; soft skills, interpersonal and
communication skills and problem-solving skills.
For this reason, employers look favorably on young people's first and
subsequent experiences in various organizations; youth and nonprofit
organizations. Employers see jobs in the youth sector as demonstrating and
teaching relevant, specialized skills and say that youth involvement in
various organizations of this type is a a good predictor of young people's high
level of motivation and potential, especially when it comes to fitting into a
new company.
Participation in non-formal education, not only in the home country, gives
young people a much higher level of development of their competencies and
skills, especially if we are talking about intercultural communication and
learning and actively using foreign languages and the acquisition of
leadership skills. As an NGO, we are convinced that the growth of of these
skills is one of the first steps to success in later professional life. Already in
Europe we see how many different countries have problems among young
people in terms of the level of unemployment. And acquiring sufficiently high
soft skills allows and plays an extremely important role in a later successful
professional career.
