ABOUT THE PROJECT
The Activity A2 of the program POWER OUT 2.0. is about professional development activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As Fifty-Fifty organization, we are going to organize a training meeting in Thessaloniki, Greece. We have structured our POWER-OUT around the concepts of social inclusion and education through outdoor activities among youth. The main goal has to be achieved are the development of youth through outdoor activities, overcoming the skills gap, and reducing the radicalization of youth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One of the central issues is considered as an activity challenge and is going to be discussed in this training session is that national education systems simply do not offer training in the skills required for the labor market, leading to thousands of unfilled positions across the continent. ETS aims to fill this gap by improving soft skills, intercultural competencies, and teamwork of youth from across the EU. That\u2019s why POWER-OUT focuses on these values.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a very vital project aims to address the challenges of social exclusion and marginalization of young people while raising awareness on the importance of outdoor activities as a worldwide known tool for tackling inequalities and social exclusion which gives the base of our initiative designed by young people for young people. Young people who practice outdoor activities are less likely to fall into extremism and it facilitates their inclusion, brings them the opportunity to acquire outdoor activities values as part of their educational process and allows them to feel part of a group and society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Objectives of POWER OUT project are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Raise awareness on the importance of intercultural dialogue, mutual understanding and tolerance among young Europeans of different origins
Draw attention to the importance of social inclusion especially concerning young people from disadvantaged cultural and ethnic minority groups
Develop young people\u2019s skills and critical thinking to become more active, fit and health-conscious European citizens
Make young people advocates of inclusion, tolerance, dialogue and active, healthy living in their local communities
Provide opportunities for young people with fewer opportunities through outdoor activities-based nonformal education
