ACTIVITIES

 

WP1- Project Management
Project management involves the planning, organizing, and overseeing of all aspects of a project to ensure that it meets its specific objectives efficiently and effectively, including project management, monitoring, and evaluation.

 

WP2- Communication and dissemination strategy plan
The project committee developed a strategy to engage the general public and raise awareness about the project’s objectives and activities

 

WP3- Curriculum for youth workers
A curriculum for youth workers focused on circular economy and green skills, was developed in Vienna. Training sessions were conducted to prepare youth workers, and a Good Practices Protocol was established to guide their support for NEET engagement in circular economy initiatives.

 

WP4- Youth Exchange mobility actions for study visits leading to policy discussions
Four Mobility Training Weeks were conducted in Greece, Belgium, Italy, and Austria, featuring sessions aimed at enhancing and transferring green skills such as leadership, energy management, communication, and other relevant skills tailored to individual employment needs and aspirations. At the conclusion of each mobility, a policy report was generated, culminating in the creation of a consolidated policy paper.

 

WP5- Implementation of two “Delphi Panels”
The objective of the Delphi Panel is to reach a consensus on recommendations and discussions regarding circular economy practices, green skills development, and NEET needs. The first panel, conducted before mobility actions, focuses on familiarizing participants with circular economy concepts and gathering international good practices. The second panel, conducted after mobility actions, analyses gaps identified during the mobility visits and proposes international policy solutions.
