About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Young people at an early age are facing issues to their career choices. They find it hard to choose the right profession and even when they choos it, they are confused and not sure whether they made it right. Once they know what they want, they are still confused about ways to reach their carrer goals. Young people do not have enough space where they can freely discuss what they are struggling with. They need to raise questions and get answers to them in order to be successful in their careers. WHAT ARE WE AIMING? To let participants get more information about professions and career paths that exist To figure out what the current stage of their career is and to elaborate their strength and weaknesses To create the right mindset that determines the right career choice and development path To find motivation on how to get satisfaction on short-term and long-term basis To break career-related stereotypes and to promote equal opportunities.

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
