Hosting Organisation: Young Effect

From 8 to 14 ottobre 2022 in Arma di Taggia - Sanremo - Italy  (8 October and 14 October are travel days)

Topic of the project:

Half the world’s people currently live in rural and remote areas. The problem is that most health workers live and work in cities. This imbalance is common to almost all countries and poses a major challenge to the nationwide provision of health services. Its impact, however, is most severe in low-income countries. The same is valid for EU countries. People who live in rural and remote areas are more vulnerable to social exclusion. Social inclusion has long been a key part of the European Union‘s policies.

Our TC is designed to develop knowledge, skills and attitudes of youth workers and youth leaders working with a main target group: young people in rural and suburban areas struggling with social exclusion, poverty, unemployment and so develop in them a new spirit for challenges and initiatives, we want to let those youth workers understand the importance of reflection that must become concrete action in the young people that they are leading, starting for example by re-evaluation and developing of their ideas in a natural environment, to be used in a functional and sustainable way in their local with the other youngsters during their youth work.

Ojectives:

• Analyze the problems of those living in rural areas but also see the potentiality of sustainable development;

• improve youth workers attitude providing them with methods, tools and motivation techniques, which will enable them to work efficiently with the target groups in the rural areas;

• support youth work in rural areas, to improve its quality;
