Partnership-building activity for youth workers
Youth workers from long-standing partners and new organisations met at the farm to build lasting partnerships and plan the year’s activities together.
Why
Kaleidoscope opened Kora’s 2023–2025 accredited project. Youth workers from long-standing partners and from new organisations met to get to know each other, build lasting partnerships and plan the year’s youth exchanges and training courses together.
What happened
- Getting to know each other: “Sell your NGO!” pitches, open tables and team games such as “Win as much as you can”.
- Europe and us: what the EU wants from youth work, and what the organisations want, followed by an open Q&A on Erasmus+.
- Ideas fishing: participants caught project ideas, then turned them into drafts of youth exchanges and training courses.
- Planning the year: Kora’s accreditation, the role of each partner, and the plan of the coming mobilities.
- Sharing good practice: Youthpass, administration and quality standards in youth work.
Results
- The partners left with a shared plan for the youth exchanges and training courses of 2024.
- Average overall score: 8.7 out of 10 (18 responses).
