The overall aim of the project is to introduce and enhance an innovative model of learning based on exchanges between Program (Netherlands and Belgium) and Partner Countries (Serbia and Albania), learning mobility and cooperation between youth CSOs and non-formal education providers. This has been achieved through piloting a new Aflateen+ Program for Girls in Serbia and Albania, developed by the Dutch partner and sharing the Belgian experience in mobilising and empowering youth to become peer educators, thus strengthening non formal education in Partner Countries. Piloting the new program for social and financial education of girls in the Balkans has given the Dutch partner data to finalise its program to be used globally. Belgian partner has gained experience in working in the Balkans and this has led to adaptation of the training program in order to include the specific environment in the region.The most important distinctive feature of GIRLACT project has been the synergy of social and entrepreneurial competencies, applying innovative and active pedagogic approaches, including peer training and horizontal learning models. In its implementation, the action has been promoting civic, inter-cultural, social and relational competences, mutual understanding and respect, and ownership of democratic values and fundamental rights, enhancing critical thinking, financial and cyber literacy. Addressing the increasing diversity of learners and access to good quality inclusive mainstream education and training for all, including girls, while tackling discrimination, bullying, violence and stereotypes was the basis for promotion of active citizenship in learning. Introducing and strengthening financial literacy, entrepreneurial skills, planning, saving, investing and budgeting enabled both young people and youth workers to make much more feasible and realistic plans for their actions. This made the action unique in its effort to promote/implement integrative peer learning model for supporting individual entrepreneurial initiatives with increased awareness of their social impact on the community and society. The specific objectives to: 1. Design relevant innovative and flexible models of learning aimed at acquiring/improving employability skills of young people, especially girls; 2. Raise capacities of youth CSOs and provide them with tools necessary for delivery of a new form of training based on non-formal flexible learning methods, learning mobility, virtual cooperation and OER; 3.
