We would like to provide a space for youth workers, youth leaders to understand better the background and causes of unemployment of young people and to learn policies in order to fight against it and how these youth policies can be adapted into local youth work activities by exploring and inventing new tools on positive thinking, empowering job seekers and radicalization, marginalization of young people. During 8 working days the participants will share opinions and ideas on unemployment and will be involved in various activities.
