Information about the training course

Appetiser aims to give a strong positive first experience of international youth work and motivate participants to use the Erasmus+ Programme and, to a certain extent, though it will not be tackled as much in details - the European Solidarity Corps Programme. This aim summarises the entire idea of the seminar – to give a feeling, what it means to work with young people in an international setting. Leaving all explanations and knowledge aside it is about giving a space for participants to explore the advantage of “internationality” themselves.

* So:

Do you have experience as a youth worker/leader at local level and yet did not organise international youth activities within Erasmus+ (or the European Solidarity Corps programmes)?

Do you want to know about Erasmus+ opportunities for international youth exchanges, volunteering activities or/and training projects for youth workers?

Are you in contact with young people or other people who would benefit from being involved in international activities?

Are you part of an organisation or informal group that is new to Erasmus+ or wants to get to know about new opportunities for international activities within this programme?

Should you have answered positively to most of above questions, then this course is for you!
