READ

The project "READ" aims to familiarize young professionals with the European Youth Work Agenda, the Bonn Process and with methods and knowledge which are not taught at universities (project management, activating methods of political education, work, and dealing with language barriers). 

The EYWA is a strategic framework for further developing and strengthening youth work policies and practices. It's characterized by a coordinated approach of stakeholders at different levels and in different areas. The Bonn Process is the way to make the EYWA happen, the Bonn Process puts the EYWA into action from the local, regional and national level to the European level. In this project, the partners will organize different types of activities at local and European level.

With READ, we want to respond to the needs of the organizations involved by making the EU more understandable for their target groups and by using new methods/fresh ideas of the young professionals to reflect on common values and democracy. We believe that by promoting debate and exchange, READ will contribute to social inclusion within the EU.

Project objectives

The objectives of the READ project are as follows:

  • Build bridges between older/experienced youth workers and "first generation" youth workers
  • Create new role models ("first generation" with university degrees) for young people who cannot imagine going to university because of their backgrounds
  • Involve young people in demystifying the European Youth Work Agenda and the Bonn Process to make it more understandable in terms of inclusion
  • Make young people understand and appreciate the importance of youth work
  • Capacity building for the organizations with young multipliers
  • Empower young people and young professionals.

Project target groups

  • Young youth workers of the first generation (the first to graduate from higher education in their families) as role models for the next generations
  • Students ("first generation") at the end of their studies, already working in the organizations and having a job offer from their organization or also those who are doing a long-term internship
