YES at the ‘Youth on the Move’ conference!
YES project has been shown in the framework of the ‘Youth on the Move’ conference, taking place on December the 13th, at Committee of the Regions (Bruselas).
YES has been presented in an exhibition stand, and also represented by our Polish partner Karolina Horbaczewska, as part of an expert panel, during the Workshop 1, "Improving youth employment at local level".
The objective of this workshop was to discuss in particular:
• Youth Guarantees – What role for regional and local authorities?
• Inclusive youth employment: How does it work in the regions and cities?
• Results of EU projects in the regions and cities
The ‘Youth on the Move’ conference is organised by the Committee of the Regions (CoR) in cooperation with the European Commission’s Directorates ‘Employment, Social Affairs & Inclusion’ and ‘Education and Culture’, as well as the European Associations of local and regional authorities. It is those authorities, which primarily have to face the challenge of unemployment in the European Union - currently over 10%.
The conference provided a platform for:
•Showcasing good practice on how to fi ght youth unemployment.
•Preparing the CoR’s contribution to the mid-term assessment of the Europe 2020 strategy.
•Giving a voice to the Regions and Cities.
•Participating in ongoing debate on youth issues.
