PlaNET SOEN3
Erasmus+ KA2 - Cooperation for innovation and the exchange of good practices
Project PlaNET SOEN3 wants to engage young people towards a meaningful economic and social participation in their communities. Almost all activities and whole project lead to this specific objective, to engage young people from small cities and rural areas. Recent studies have demonstrated that the social background of young individuals strongly determines their social participation. Especially young people that live out of towns, on rural areas have a lower participation rate in key elements of social and economic engagement that include:
- activity (doing something),
- interaction (at least two people need to be involved in this activity),
- social exchange (the activity involves giving or receiving something from others)
- lack of compulsion (there is no outside force forcing an individual to engage in the activity).
In this project at least 100 young people, 10 youth workers and 10 teachers will be engaged into social and economic activities. They will be implemented through physical and virtual trainings in school participatory budget, municipal participatory budget, local trainings, international job shadowing and transnational meetings.
The project duration is: 32 month – from 1st of January 2021 to 31st August 2023.
