    The main goal of the Minority Youthotheque project was to establish effective minority-youth partnership cooperation and to create innovative approaches and tools in the field of minority tourism and cultural heritage. By carrying out project activities, we have made a big step towards changing practices and guidelines for greater social inclusion of young minority members of the former Yugoslavia in Slovenia, Serbia and Croatia. The great emphasis of the project was on active participation and connecting young people with fewer opportunities, namely members of ethnic minorities, members of rural areas, members with social obsticles and other young people from all partner's organizations. Organizations that implement programs for young minority members face insufficient interest and motivation for non-formal education to improve their knowledge, skills and abilities and consequently enhance social inclusion and professional development. The issue is related to the management and organizational skills of minority organizations, which also face a lack of skilled and proactive teaching staff and a lack of appropriate and innovative education programs. Particular problems for minority organizations are opening up cooperation, cross-sectoral networking and creating synergies with public and private youth organizations, centres and offices at the local and national level, and for young members connecting and socializing with young people from the majority population. In addition, there are individual and systemic barriers to engaging in educational activities. These are related to access to information and funding, linguistic and socio-cultural barriers and difficulties in applying the acquired knowledge. Poor interest affects the intergenerational transmission of language, culture and customs, and the lack of understanding of ethnic identity and the preservation and development of minority culture, which offers members various cultural, economic and educational opportunities in the labour market and everyday life. In a broader sense, this is related to the different normative solutions and practices of the participating countries in minorities. In the project, we designed three intellectual results and conducted two international project meetings (Rimske Toplice and Nova Gradiška). For the promotion and dissemination of project results, we organized three multiplicative events (Nova Gradiška, Tavankut and Laško), which we managed to carry out live despite the restrictions due to the COVID pandemic. We have involved more than 50 young people from participating countries, more than 10 youth workers and more than 40 representatives of various stakeholders. Through their active participation, they contributed to the successful implementation of project activities, improved knowledge of cultural heritage, improved intercultural and digital skills, self-initiative, self-confidence and entrepreneurship. Around 150 different people took part in all project activities, and about 40 organizations, mainly youth and minorities, came into direct contact with the project results. Around 1,500 people came into indirect contact with the project results. We can measure awareness of the project activities in tens of thousands as several national frequencies (RTV Slovenia, HRT, TV Vojvodina) and many regional and local portals promoted them. Participants obtained their Youthpass certificate. To achieve project results and goals, quality promotion and dissemination, we included renowned experts and artists in the project. Among them, a writer Goran Vojnović, illustrator Izar Lunaček, stand up comedian Admir Baltić, director Branko Ištvančić, photographer Voranc Vogel, director of the Croatian Tourist Board Metko Bradetić, director of the Celje Youth Center Sonja Majcen and many others. We have focused our project activities on the creation of three bilingual intellectual results: - MINORITY VIDEOTHEQUE: Online education with video lectures in the field of creative minority tourism and cultural heritage, promotion of minority culture, intercultural and digital communication and project management in culture, - OUR CULTURE IN OUR CITY: The brochure is a guide to the various minority attractions in the local communities of the participating organizations with a focus on the impact of minority culture on the majority and vice versa, - MINORITY COMPASS: A publication that includes theoretical and strategic guidelines for greater social inclusion of young minority members in the case of creative minority tourism and cultural heritage, as well as examples of various good practices of the participants. The intellectual results encouraged young minority members to seek innovative approaches to expression, preserve and promote minority cultural heritage, and create flexible methods to promote and market their cultural products and reap the benefits of knowing different cultures and languages.

    << Objectives >>Through this project we will build the transnational and cross sectoral working capacities of NGO’s active in youth work in the field of employability, digital content technologies and practices and new learning approaches. We will contribute to the digitalization of the learning process by creating an e-learning platform and enable distance learning. By achieving the project goals, we will contribute to the achievement of the goals of the Erasmus + program.<< Implementation >>All activities we plan to carry out in accordance with non-formal working methods. In addition to transnational meetings, we plan to hold international training for youth workers, develop a new learning program, and digitize the entire process. Activities will be carried out in parallel in all countries involved in this project at the local and international level.<< Results >>The project plans to create a guidebook that would systematize in one place all the obstacles that exist in society and prevent young people from accessing the labor market. The guidebook would contain new methods and approaches for youth workers who work with young people with fewer opportunities. The project will create a digital platform that will enable distance learning for all stakeholders in the field of youth inclusion in the labor market.
