Description
Project objective is to increase the digital capacity in local governments in the field of youth work by creating innovative smart solutions that are youth centred for the better quality of youth work (including e-participation opportunities) as well as raising the digital competence of youth workers through the development of a learning environment and thematic trainings. The project strives to contribute to reaching a wider goal where the specialists dealing with the youth are able to – in addition to evaluating and developing one’s own digital competence skills – offer versatile learning and evolving possibilities to the youth corresponding to the trends of the future and via that also giving their input into the development of the society as a whole, incl. the green transition.
The project activities will result in the creation of the e-participation platform enabling the youth to raise their ideas and problematic areas through digital solutions and include youths through participatory democracy in the decision-making processes at municipal government level.
The project will also deliver a model of digital competence and evaluation means for youth workers and will train at least 100 youth workers in at least 48 local governments in order to raise their capacity to implement smart youth work solutions in their work.
