Описание на организацията:

Youth BCN is an association based in Barcelona, Spain. We focus on youth work, entrepreneurship and international mobilities, such as internships, volunteer actions, meetings of youngsters and youth workers, mainly inside Erasmus+. We work with organizations of a similar profile from all over Europe (more than 20 partnerships) to implement events and training courses using non-formal education as a method. Youth participation, volunteering and international mobilities are powerful instruments to encourage youth to take an active part in the society. By engaging in international projects we help young people to improve their skills and social awareness, share experiences and ideas, integrate them within the multinational environment of the EU, facilitate intercultural awareness, create new joint initiatives and promote an inclusive society. Our target group are youngsters between 18 and 30 years old that have fewer opportunities and/or disadvantaged backgrounds. As well, we focus on the development of youth workers skills and innovative methods.
Our aim is to empower youngsters to be able to create a betterment of the society we live in. And the objectives that will help us achieve our aim are: To (1) enhance entrepreneurial, social, leadership, communication skills, self-esteem, as well as multilingualism of youth through non-formal education; (2) help youth increase their social awareness, be tolerant towards others, be aware of the persisting social and environmental problems and help solve them; (3) educate youth workers and youth on how to join volunteering initiatives, cooperate with each other, and get employed more easily; (4) organize joint campaigns, projects and activities, where young people and youth workers can get involved in an intercultural dialogue, be a part of the decision making process, develop the spirit of volunteerism, facilitate youth cooperation and social values; (5) raise awareness about EU citizenship among young people, educate about social responsibility and work towards reducing youth unemployment; (6) organize youth seminars, exchanges, trainings for youth workers, conferences and discussions on relevant social topics, promote healthy, active, and ecologically friendly lifestyle in order to increase the well-being of youth.
