P-Action ¨Personal is Political¨ is the Capacity Building project that aims on empowering young people, and equipping them with tools to stand up as leaders in their local communities, and especially to act as role models. With the project we will further define the model of P-Action, that comes from the slogan personal is political, and encourages people to undertake actions, since all our behaviours can have the political impact and can positively influence our society. We plan to work with young people to encourage them to be a role models, to stand up for the issues important for them, and then to share personal stories. The project is composed from the development of the training tools and the concept of P-Action, that will be done together with all the partners. We will implement the international training course for young leaders to empower them using the P-Action model, and those leaders later on will be implementing local actions on the local level. We have structured it in a way that youth will have quite a liberty in deciding upon the type of action, and what topics they are going to tackle. It will be the attempt to so called participatory budgets, where youth can decide what is important for them and do it. As well we will implement 21 voluntary mobility for 5 months each. The project will develop the booklet where the P-Action model will be described and where you will be able to find non formal education tools to use with young people following our model, as well as we will develop the open badges system, the digital way of motivation and recognition of achievements of young people, for their P-Actions. Finally we will encourage youth participating in the project to produce P-Videos where they are sharing their personal story. The project will last 24 months and will engage youth organizations from 6 different countries Spain, Greece, Poland, Paraguay, Mexico and Uganda.

The HAPPY project 2.0. was a global capacity building initiative engaging 6 youth organizations from 3 continents with the main aim to create the partnerships response for the urging global problem of youth unemployment, and find out how local and international volunteering can contribute in solving this problem.The specific objectives of the project were the following:a) to improve the expertise of the partnership, to enable them to work with NEETs more efficiently;b) Support unemployed young people and NEETs, and particularly those in long-term unemployment to build competencies that will give them better chances to be included in the labour market;c) To contribute to the development and empowerment of local volunteering structures in the partners´coutntires;d) Enhance active citizenship on local and global level within a group of traditionally passive (long-term) unemployed young people;e) Support development efforts in communities much in need in countries outside of Europe.The HAPPY project was implemented by a partnership of youth organizations in Spain, Hungary, Lithuania, Mexico, Nepal and Vietnam.The project had the following three main directions of action. The first one was the implementation of the International training of trainers and facilitators ¨Empowerment of Young people to fight youth unemployment¨ for youth workers, there the action plan how to involve NEETs into volunteering was created. Second stage was the local work, that included the outreach and trainings for local volunteers, engaging app 200 young people. Meanwhile as well there was a mobility of 20 EVS volunteers to Vietnam, Mexico and Nepal, the EVS activity lasting 5 and 6 months.The last stage of the Happy 2 project was the dissemination and exploitation of results.The whole project was based on the specifically-created HAPPY model. HAPPY stands for:· Help. The volunteer’s main task is to run a project in support of the local community. Volunteers use their time, energy and competencies to help those most in need, while at the same time helping themselves.· Absorb. The volunteering services should be done in a way to support the learning of the volunteers at a maximum in various personal and professional competencies..· Participate. Apart from their regular projects (usually service-oriented) the volunteers should be engaged in at least one other action as a manifestation of their active.· Promote. The volunteers that do volunteering services in another continent are perceived as ambassadors of global change. They will promote both the idea of volunteering as an act of active citizenship and the idea of sustainable global development.· Youth. Activities fitting the interests of the young people, being youth-friendly and fun!After the 2 year long project we have reached the impact desired, have involved much more young people into the process that we've planned, created a strong and effective partnership eager to continue collaborating in more projects.

Based on their work the publication with the tools, model and project results were developed.Youth workers from participating organizations and EVS volunteers tested the model after the international TC that was aimed at the development of the competences of youth workers that allowed them, later on, to do the coaching session with young volunteers. Then we implemented 25 EVS mobility from 2 to 6 months( 1 less than it was planned from the beginning), during which the model was tried out. As the last stage, the evaluation meeting was conducted to measure the quality of the model and the general impact of the project and to plan the follow-up.Project was designed for 2 years, and the partnership is composed of 7 organizations from Spain, France, Poland, Indonesia, Mexico, Thailand and India."
