<< Background >>Together for Tackling Cyberbullying (TOC) is a 24-month Strategic Partnership in the field of Youth aiming at raising awareness about Cyberbullying as well as at preventing violence among young people. According to UNICEF “Cyberbullying is bullying with the use of digital technologies. It can take place on social media, messaging platforms, gaming platforms and mobile phones. It is repeated behaviour, aimed at scaring, angering, or shaming those who are targeted… Face-to-face bullying and cyberbullying can often happen alongside each other. But cyberbullying leaves a digital footprint – a record that can prove useful and provide evidence to help stop the abuse.”The innovation of the TOC project is directly attributable to the following elements:CONSORTIUM All partners involved in the Consortium have experienced in implementing project at local and International level. TOC partners are actively engaged in combating the social exclusion of young people and raising awareness in the community regarding the issues of Cyberbullying among young people.APPROACH Preventing cyberbullying among young people is a challenging process. In fact, there can be no healthy society without attitudes of awareness and tolerance and critical thinking skills.TOC involves both the direct target groups of youth workers and young people. It is certainly important to improve the quality of youth work on the topic of Cyberbullying. In addition, it is important to actively involve young people as learners and as real protagonists of social change by fighting against Cyberbullying.<< Objectives >>During the cooperation, the consortium will pursue the following objectives:•Design a Training Format targeted at youth workers and organizations for tackling Cyberbullying amongst young people•Develop a new innovative methodology to prevent cyberbullying, based on Digital Storytelling, Critical thinking, and Digital Skills.•Promote the development of civic competences and the respect of human rights amongst youth community in all Europe, especially at the consortium level•Foster active citizenship, self-confidence, and sense of community amongst young people.•Implement a local activity programmes to reach the TOC’s target groups TOC’s direct target group is:•Joint Staff youth workers aged 18+ who have experience working with young people.•BMYP young people (18-25 y/o) who are/were victims of cyberbullying and want to raise awareness about this problem and prevent those attacks The indirect target group is young people and communities affected by episodes of Cyberbullying.<< Implementation >>METHODOLOGYThe project will develop a brand-new educational methodology rooted in Digital Storytelling Digital skills and Critical thinking, being for the first time complementary to each other.The choice has fallen on the above-mentioned methodologies and competences because their combination will contribute on having a direct effect/impact at national and international level.During the cooperation, the consortium will pursue the following objectives:•Design a Training Format targeted at youth workers and organizations for tackling Cyberbullying amongst young people•Develop a new innovative methodology to prevent cyberbullying, based on Digital Storytelling, Critical thinking, and Digital Skills. •Promote the development of civic competences and the respect of human rights amongst youth community in all Europe, especially at the consortium level•Foster active citizenship, self-confidence, and sense of community amongst young people.•Implement a local activity programmes to reach the TOC’s target groups TOC’s direct target group is:•Joint Staff youth workers aged 18+ who have experience working with young people.•BMYP young people (18-25 y/o) who are/were victims of cyberbullying and want to raise awareness about this problem and prevent those attacks The indirect target group is young people and communities affected by episodes of Cyberbullying.Activities:3 - transnational projects meeting is foreseen to coordinate amongst partners:1 - Joint Staff “Cyberbullying NO thank you”- TOC International Testing Mobility.

“Fostering Entrepreneurial Mindset in Migrants through Education” (FEMME) will develop the entrepreneurial mindset and related hard/soft skills in first and second generation female youth migrants aged 18-25 potential entrepreneurs.Direct project target will be first and second generation youth female migrants aged 18-25 from partner countries suffering from socioeconomic marginalization, interested and motivated in becoming entrepreneurs, kick-starting and developing their entrepreneurial ideas. The project will also directly target youth workers from partners, interested in acquiring instruments of entrepreneurial support to youth female migrants. Indirect project target is the wider audience of disadvantaged migrant female youths in partner countries and Europe as well as the youth operators and organizations who work with the foregoing target either specifically or as a subset of the wider youth population. The project meets the challenge ofenhancing the entrepreneurial spirit and education of young people in the EU, in order to increase business creation rates and provide alternative pathways of employability and personal fulfilment to the youth, with a particular focus on female youngsters. According to the latest statistical evidence of the EC (see https://ec.europa.eu/growth/smes/promoting-entrepreneurship/we-work for/women_en), the challenge of female entrepreneurial participation is substantial, with women representing 52% of the total European population, but only 34.4% of the EU self-employed and 30% of start-uppers. European societies are also at the center of migration and refugee flows dynamics as well as of the related challenge of integrating vast masses of refugees, many of whom are women. UNHCR data quantify in 350,000 individuals the number of third nationals who crossed the Mediterranean Sea in 2016 alone. The aforementioned trend is already at play, and will be ever more in the future, in orienting the evolution of European societies in a multicultural perspective. Nowadays, the overall population of Europe is composed of non-nationals for up to the 5%. Far from representing a hindrance to the development of the hosting societies, migrants have recurrently proven to provide an added value to socioeconomic growth by providing an additional pool of entrepreneurial motivationand potential. As highlighted by the EU “Entrepreneurship 2020 Action Plan”, if Europe is to make the most of the opportunities provided by an ever developing and challenging global environment, entrepreneurship is to be made the growth engine of the European economy, which “needs a thorough, far-reaching cultural change”. The Action Plan also points out that migrants represent a valuable component in the foregoing evolution, due to their higher rates of business creation as compared with nationals, yet “Notwithstanding that migrants have higher business creation ratesthan the rest of the population they fail more due to a lack of information, knowledge and language skills”. Female migrants are motivated to become entrepreneurs but face a set of barriers related to access to training, business support services, language barriers, inadequate management and marketing skills. They also represent particularly vulnerable targets in that they compound these barriers with gender disadvantage. The project aims at addressing the challenges identified above by means of providing young female migrants in possession of entrepreneurial motivation with the attitudes and skills needed to start-up and grow their own start-ups. FEMME will deliver on this aim through the following: - Research for the identification of the training needs of female youth migrant entrepreneurs and their connection with the existing educational offer, carried out by a combination of desk research and surveying. - Guide for female migrant entrepreneurs integrating methodologies of self-learning supporting them in giving shape to and developing their entrepreneurial ideas. The Guide will be tested and reviewed in a specific educational mobility with female migrant prospective entrepreneurs. A following local session of Piloting will allow participants to further test the Guide as a tool of concrete orientation in the establishment and development of their own businesses. - Training Toolkit for Trainers. The Toolkit will integrate guidelines and methods of NFE tailored to the needs of youth workers willing to implement educational programmes to empower prospective female migrant entrepreneurs. - Online modules and Web Platform. Partners will produce a specific Web Platform with integrated e-learning modules in multiple languages targeted at an audience of female youth migrants prospective entrepreneurs in Europe. The modules will provide the target with useful information and exercises supporting them in the design and development of their own entrepreneurial ideas.Testing of Toolkit and Manual will be delivered in a mobility of youth workers.

"""We Shan’t TolerHate"" (WSTH) is a Strategic Partnership lasting 24 months focused on promoting youth volunteering as an instrument to contrast discrimination against migrants and refugees among the youth categories and within the hosting societies at large. The surge in intolerance, stereotyping and discrimination against migrants and refugees represents one of the most glaring realities influencing political and civil society debate, particularly in the European polities most sensibly hit by the massive migrants and refugee flows from Africa and the Middle Eastern region. Eurostat quantifies in 164.300 the number of extra-EU nationals who sought asylum in the EU-28 during the third quarter of 2017.In its Report covering the period between 2015 and 2016, the European Network Against Racism highlighted a concerning upward trend in episodes of racism, discrimination and aggression against migrants, in coincidence with the intensification in the migration crisis and the resulting spike in antimigration political discourse and exclusionary migration policies across the European Union. The Report also identified a statistical increase in direct violence against refugees and asylum seekers in Europe.This pattern of discrimination, stereotyping and attack (physical as well as verbal) is fuelled by and feeds a sliding of public debate over migrants and migration towards a subalternity to the dichotomic categorizations and confrontational positions expressed by populist, extremist and generally farright movements, which increasingly gain access to the mainstream public debate and realm of policies. Young people are particularly vulnerable to racist and discriminatory propaganda and messages, in particular considering their preferential use of Social Media, wherein this type of aggressive and discriminatory speech is ever more circulated. The necessity of setting the conditions for youth awareness about racism and discrimination as well as of the active contrast thereof in the field of youth is stressed by the European Youth Strategy, which sets the objective of supporting the development of cultural awareness and the contrast of prejudice among the youth. WSTH pursues these objectives by means of selecting and training a cluster of youth volunteers actively committed to contrasting feelings and practices of discrimination among young people as well as promoting the positive values of tolerance and respect of diversity enshrined in European identity and citizenshipWSTH activities are:- Research and identification of European good practices in contrasting radicalization and prejudice among young people through Storytelling, Sport and Art.- Selection of a cluster of 10 young people per partner country (5 of local and 5 of migrant origins) to take part in the process of educational empowerment delivered in the project.- Implementation of 3 Blended Youth Mobilities (1 per partner country) wherein partners will develop the knowledge, skills and competences of selected youngsters in employing unconventional instruments of Non Formal Education (Storytelling, Sport and Art) as tools for contrasting phenomena of racism and xenophobia among their fellow young people, as well as spreading positive values of inclusion and tolerance.- Implementing a set of local activities delivered by participating youngsters in each partner country towards an audience of their own peers (locals and migrants). The focus of the activities will be to convey the educational message of the project to youngsters in local realities.- Developing educational resources (Research Reports, Manual and Blog) in multiple languages allowing a wide accessibility and disclosure of project results and thereby producing a direct impact on the audience of youngsters and youth operators in partner countries and in Europe at large."
