together with five other organizations from

five European countries launched the project

THEY.EA on August 1st, 2015. During the

project named “Towards Higher

Employability of Youth. European

Approach” the partners will jointly create

tools which will enable young people and

youth workers to have better orientation in

employment and educational opportunities

in the EU. The project is funded under the Erasmus+ project and its goal is to increase the youth

employment, particularly in areas affected by high levels of unemployment. The outcome of the

project is going to be an educational programme in the form of a manual for young people seeking

employment and worksheets for organizations working with the unemployed youth. The target

group are therefore non-profit organizations, schools, employment offices and public

administration.

and other organizations involved are the following:

- Institut pro regionální rozvoj, o.p.s. (the Czech Republic)

- National Association of Municipal Clerks in Bulgaria (Bulgaria)
