YES: Youth Engagement in Society - A toolkit to work with NEET youth


The main goal of the program is to support NEETs in acquiring and developing basic skills and key competences, in order to foster social inclusion, active citizenship and socio-educational/personal development.
We adapted the 3 areas of action of the EU Youth Strategy 2019-2027 (Engage, Empower and Connect) to develop the 3 Sections of our “YES: Youth Engagement in Society” program.
Each module was carefully made for NEET Young people aiming To become ACTIVE CITIZENS by developing their Knowledge, Skills and Attitude:
- Grounding
- Self-Confidence
- Self-Determination and Resilience
- Managing Feelings
- Citizenship
- Intercultural Dialogue
- Relationship & Leadership
- Social Entrepreneurship & Creativity
- Planning and Problem-Solving
- Communication
- Connecting the Dots
Physical and online activities are available.
The training programme was tested in 5 European countries (Italy, Cyprus, Portugal, Sweden and UK) with local NEET youth participants.
The full programme is available as OER in the project website, under the section "OUTPUTS": http://yes-project.it/ where you will download the Training Programme by clicking on the category you are more interested to, and some Annexes.
Some of the activities were adapted for an online environment in a specific Booklet that you will find in the same website.
