YESS – to support the fight against unemployment among young people

Unemployment rate among young people is high in all the partner countries (Poland, Italy, Greece & Cyprus). Many young people are full of fresh and innovative ideas, unfortunately they are not given the opportunity to explore their ideas or to take the first step in setting up their own businesses. The project is designed to contribute to fight against unemployment among young people by providing them an exchange of experience and learning and networking.

On 7th of June the partners of YESS project have met in Palermo for the third transnational meeting to discuss about the progress of the project requirements and its next steps.

The partners discussed about the output IO1 of the project and digital training content, considering the Training Modules which will be uploaded on the e-learning platform in order to be used during the Enterprise Shadowing programme. These products will help young people’s employability by providing them supporting tools during their period of shadowing as well as guaranteeing a guide to be used in the shadowing schemes for all the parties involved. 

During months of July 2019 partners will select 20 young people to participate in the project activities in each country and around 5 – 8 enterprises who will host those selected young people to their company. Participants will have the chance to participate in 15 hours of face-to-face training as well as in 30 hours of asynchronous e learning, through the project’s platform (Intellectual Output 3).

The project has funded by Erasmus+, KA2 Strategic Partnerships for youth and it has a duration of 24 months.

The YESS partnership is composed of four partners from four countries:

• Coordinator: Stowarzyszenie Integracja i Rozwój (Poland) sir.com.pl
