In the era of Millennials, when youngsters spend more and more time online, the need has arisen to move some of the youth work practices to the virtual world. Online space provides a great opportunity for youth workers to affect young people’s lives and habits and reach high number of them without limitation to a specific geographic region or time frame. However, these campaigns need to be youth-appealing and stand out from a huge amount of information young people are overwhelmed with, in order to be effective and reach the planned goals. In the time when youngsters are more and more comfortable on the web, overwhelmed by huge amounts of information and carefully choosing and filtering the information they pay attention to, youth workers need additional support and space for developing skills in order to reach out to the youngsters online in the most effective manner. Online campaigns can be a very useful tool for youth work practices, but only if conducted in a quality and youth appealing manner. This is where youth workers need additional support, to develop and improve their competences (IT skills, but also behavioural knowledge) in order to create programmes and campaigns that will be digitally-youth-friendly and have the desired impact on the target group. There are two extremely important main goals to meet when online campaigning: 1. Be visible and stand out from a huge amount of information and 2. Have the desired effect on the target group (whether it is delivering information, a change of perspective, move to action etc.). Peer-to-peer online campaigns have a great potential, since it is the youngsters who know best what the current trends are on the web and especially on social networks, and can predict very easily the reaction that a current action or content can cause on the web. During the project implementation, youth workers will have the opportunity to gain knowledge on online campaigning, and also develop skills and competences in this area. They will be able to work on creation of their own methods during the TC, and they will have the opportunity to try out and furtherly develop those methods during three youth exchanges. Furthermore, participants of the youth exchanges will start and implement three European level campaigns after the exchange. This way, planned activities will give youth workers and youngsters the opportunity to practically try out their new knowledge, use and test the newly adopted skills and measure the results they had on the target groups in comparison to the expected results. One of the crucial outputs of the project will be the Recommendations (Online campaign as a tool in youth work) the project team will develop and publish at the end of the project implementation. Recommendations will be made public and available for all the interested individuals, organisations and entities who wish to implement project or programmes using online campaigning as a tool.

<< Objectives >>The project aims to promote the Erasmus + Program in the principles and opportunities it offers to organizations that target their activities to seniors and to the people who belong to these organizations.Through actions at local and transnational level and in a perspective of intergenerational dialogue, the project aims to contribute to the construction of a common European identity, involving organizations and people in a path of discovery of the Program.<< Implementation >>The project includes a series of activities, at local and transnational level, aimed at seniors, in collaboration with the organizations that represent them. The planned activities are: the organization of a series of meetings for the presentation of the Erasmus + program at the local level; a transnational laboratory; a second series of meetings for the return of the experience to the territory; sharing the experience online, through the creation of a training module.<< Results >>The results we want to achieve together are: the improvement of the capacities of organizations for seniors in promoting the opportunities that the program offers them, in collaboration with the youth organizations that represent the soul of the Erasmus + program; greater involvement of seniors, with a view to developing personal skills and enhancing them, in building a more inclusive European society and identity.

The project Mix it Up, Shake it up – redefining follow up of international youth events was meant to address such specific needs and provide sustainable solutions for overcoming this challenge in many youth organisations. It was meant to last from 01.05.2018 till 31.12.2019 and involved 6 partners (Project 2020 in United Kingdom, YEU International in Belgium, ADEL Slovakia, CID Macedonia, CGE Erfurt e.V. and USB Greece).Alas, this did not pan out this way and that national agency decided with no particular evidence to terminate. *insert shrug emoji here*From experience, when working on an international level there is always the challenge on how to transfer the outcomes of different mobilises afterwards within the local organisations. Sometimes this is because to mobilities achieve nothing (the majority of time, lets be honest) or it is because when you have organisations that actually care (like ourselves) there is no realistic support or methodology on how to do this. If there is, its not advertised well. There is often lack of experience on how to ensure the follow up or the transfer of the knowledge back in the organisations, or in some cases the organisation is not able to provide specific support for the people who were part of the mobility (a lot of the time because a lot of sending organisations are just making money on charging people to take part in projects for cheap tourism) to implement and transfer what they learned. Additionally, there is also a need for following the long-term effect and impact of the mobility to the beneficiary, as it is very difficult to track them. The aim of the strategic partnership was to develop guidelines and capacities for quality follow up of different youth processes, transfer of learning from international to local and national environment, and offering space for more active engagement of youth leaders within the civil society and youth field. The objectives of this strategic partnership were: • To strengthen the capacities of youth organisations towards a better use of the knowledge and experience of participants in the post mobility period • To develop clear and easily implementable strategies and mechanism on how to ensure the follow up and impact in the local community after a youth mobility • To explore the possibilities of measurement of impact from mobilities in the daily life of the participants in a long-term perspective • To offer space for a structured way of knowledge-sharing between different local and international youth organisations and to encourage future collaborations • To promote meaningful active participation of youth leaders within civil society organisations and the youth sector • To provide the participants and partner organisations with a set of Online tools that can be used for a better and more effective communication and management inside the organisations One of the clear answers of the faced need is the use of Online tools and mechanisms that are mostly available and accessible for all the young people. Another answer id for national agencies to actually visit to projects and organisations and see what is happening with young people, rather than go by paperwork as right now the academic liars are taking the mickey and the national agencies are damaging top notch youth work in action. The NA may not like to hear this, but it is a fact. The training we were to have were a part of presenting the possible online tools that can be used inside the organisations for better communication and management. These tools were to be useful for the partner organisations to have pre- and post- mobility communication and coordination with the youth worker (participant).The project was to unfold into the realisation of 3 intellectual outputs: • Publication: Effective follow up of International youth mobilities on local level • Online support platform for impact assessment with information and learning modules for other organisations or youth workers • Set of recommendations towards youth organisations and institutions on what kind of structural changes they can make to be more inclusive The impact of the project in the long run was to contribute towards development of stronger youth organisations as well as call out the fake ones, with a lot of know-how gained from the international level, with developed quality volunteer management systems that will engage more young people in different social, cultural and political processes.

"CONTEXT ANALYSISYSEEAM: Youth Social Entrepreneurship Education for All with Moodle takes roots on the threshold of an approaching Fourth Industrial Revolution in which automation and massive digitalisation is predicted to radically alter the status-quo relation between trainers- trainees, youth workers - youths and their place in the learning process; as well as the future's changeable Skills Demand. Entrepreneurship - Analytical thinking - Leadership and Social Influence are predicted by World Economic Forum (2018) to continue to be most essential skills for future jobs. In the face of those challenges, youth work shall need to anticipate trends and adapt to new technological changes in order to confirm its indispensable role in the new digital age.OBJECTIVEThe project aims to consolidate the role of youth workers in promoting youth social entrepreneurship by enriching them with the core knowledge of social entrepreneurship, youth work skills, and particularly the technical know-how to open their relevant courses on MOODLE as a new, innovative, far-reaching way of doing youth work. Simultaneously, YSEEAM aspires to develop a new form of youth work methods in the efforts to make its digital shift. MAIN ACTIVITIESTowards the above goal, YSEEAM plans a series of interlinking CB and Mobilities activities within 24 months that shall result in the production of 07 Mini-Moodle Courses in all project countries, a final Full Moodle Course of the project, and the project Handbook ""Moodling Youth Work"" detailing how to use Moodle to do Youth Work.Fundamental activities include:- Kick-off meeting - Training Course- Youth Consultation Workshops- Implementation of Pilot Moodle Course- Job Shadowing- Local Multiplier Seminars- Final ConferencePARTNERSHIPTaking into account the inherent global factor of entrepreneurship and digital learning, YSEEAM consortium brings together 7 partners from three continents for wider and enriching realities and viewpoints. There will be 3 partners from Europe (Italy- Coordinator, Denmark and Greece), 2 partners from Asia (Indonesia and Nepal), and 2 partners from Africa (Ghana and South Africa). IMPACTFor the beneficiaries participants: - On their competences: enhanced entrepreneurial knowledge and relevant youth work skills (lab-styled learning, digital youth work). - On their awareness and motivation: ready to embrace changes, flexible, driven for life-long learning - On their attitude towards NFE: highly adaptable and transformational in forms, overcoming spatial limits, attractive and helpful to support youths' initiatives.For participating organizations, they can benefit from the new “YSEEAM” approach that can then be integrated in their respective daily training practice an improve their intervention capacity in combining competencies and digital power. Lastly, the Massive Online learning potential shall enable large outreach to all disadvantaged youth and interested stakeholders."
