The Games as tool for social change project is a project covering 12 main stages, implemented in a consortium of five partner organizations from Poland, the Czech Republic, Portugal, Greece and Turkey. The project covers two main types of international activities. It is primarily an exchange of good practices and experiences on topics related to gamification, learning through experience and local activities aimed at young people. On the other hand, it is a series of educational activities, aimed mainly at youth workers who work in partner organizations on a daily basis and other organizations that are local partners of the organizations that are part of the consortium. As part of the project, we conducted three transnational administrative meetings, which allowed for the appropriate implementation of the next stages, as well as five stages related to the education of participants. (within the framework of individual activities, the target group will be the managers of the organizations, youth workers or young people). Thanks to such a schedule of activities - all the main actors operating in the non-governmental field for young people were covered by the educational processes.The project was carried out during the pandemic, hence we also implemented many online meetings, including e-learning - directly for project participants. In addition, these activities were supported by the implementation of three local activities, which were based on implementation, thanks to the competences acquired during the educational activities. The project, despite the fact that it is based on the exchange of experiences, assumes the creation of several results.The first was a report on the part related to industry consultations (focus groups). Thanks to this, it will be possible to reach young people and youth organizations in a better way. The second result is the location / adaptation of tools to local needs. The partner organizations themselves decided which tools would be the most appropriate for them and with the help of other partners (experienced in using a given tool) tried to adapt the tool to the local realities. The third result is a collection of tools and materials for youth workers to help them implement local activities. The collected materials also include tips and a collection of good practices useful in the implementation of local activities. The other results are: - participation of 150 people related to youth activities in the initial stage of the project in focus group meetings - training a group of about 20 youth workers so that they are able to lead local activities with young people - implementation of 5 local implementations with the use of non-formal tools, in particular the use of teaching methods through experience and gamification, together with young people (envisaged number of implementation participants = 20 young people / country = 100 people in total) - dissemination activities of the project results - individualized due to the prevailing pandemic.

From European to local level Social Enterprise is recognised as having a valuable contribution to make in building social cohesion / wellbeing and economic growth. The Social Enterprise Sharing Best Practice as a Tool in Youth Work project has been designed collectively by all partners to provide an innovative and valued contribution to promoting the concept of Social Enterprise, showcasing how it can be used creatively in youth work and as a result equip young people with skills to use in the workplace and wider society. Eight partners from six countries worked closely together to achieve the project aims and objectives; which was to share best practice between partners and through active dissemination with a wider audience. This was achieved through a programme of seven short-term training events attended by all partners, where the host partners shared their work and that of local stakeholders in the fields of social enterprise and youth work. With a diverse partner selection, we had the added value of partners sharing their own expertise (NSHC - refugees and asylum seekers, AC Sportiv Experieta Multisport in using sport as engagement tool, AMACH! LGBT in transgender work, Stephens & George in low literacy level projects, Dacorum CVS in school enterprise challenges, Solna Youth Center and statutarni mesto Karvina on municipality led enterprise initiatives and policy setting and Petriklic help in environmental initiatives). The project built the capacity of partners to engage at all geographic areas from local to European and enable partners new to transnational activity to experience the values of this form of learning. Partners were more empowered, individual participants selected by partners benefited from an important professional development opportunity. Young people from partner localities benefited from enhanced provision resulting from piloting and mainstreaming new methodologies learned from the engagement, sharing and learning with partner. Active dissemination to raise the project profile continued throughout the project, as did the evaluation / monitoring to ensure we maximised learning and outcomes. From the programme of seven training courses we identified examples of good practice and showcase the results in the publication of Good Practice Guide on Social Enterprise as a Tool in Youth Work. This ensured that the knowledge gained by partners is effectively shared at project conclusion to inform and inspire other organisations from all sectors across Europe on how they engage with young people and pass onto them valuable skills in the field of social enterprise / entrepreneurship / active citizenship
