Project Description:

The project Boosting Roma Youth Employment tackles the issue of youth employment by improving the
capabilities of career professionals and young job-seekers both:
- improving the experience and knowledge of the youth workers, social workers and other types of staff that
work with youngsters in the employment and career guidance sector;
- providing opportunities for youngsters to experience and discover what it means to have a certain career,
to help them decide which is the right way for them from a early stage (14-19 years old); and at the same
time to help them face an interview and help them to present their competencies in the best possible way
(20-30 years old).

Project Objective:

The main goal of the project is to systematically challenge the youth unemployment. The general objectives
are:
- To develop the cooperation between 6 youth NGOs from 6 European countries
- To understand better the situation of youth unemployment in Europe
- To develop the cooperation and youth participation to fight unemployment between young people
- To promote non-formal education and practical life learning for 150 young people
- To promote tolerance and understanding between 150 young people
