Unemployment is still one of the strongest challenges EU youth are facing and the fight against remains a priority issue for ensuring the well-being of young people. Organizations actively involved in the education sector have identified concrete problems related to the inconsistency between competences acquired through the completion of traditional educational paths, and the real needs of the labor market. The transition into adulthood represents a turning point in the life of young people and involves a multi level process: transition into the world of work, from the education system on to the labour market, leaving parental home and developing independent living, taking the role of active citizens by developing skills and competencies for civic engagement.The project Mind the Gap is a Strategic partnership between organizations active in youth field from UK, Greece, Bulgaria and Romania and overall goal is to develop and implement strategic approaches to support disadvantaged youngsters and NEETs by facilitating their transition to career paths whether through further education or through work based learning opportunities. Specific objectives:-By November 2021, 16 youth workers from the partner countries will review organizations approaches and design and implement process changes through sharing practices, concepts and activities, resulting in more efficient and coherent educational programs that facilitate transition to career paths for disadvantaged youngsters whether through further education or through work based learning opportunities-By May 2021, partner organizations will have delivered 1 international mobility focused on professional exploration, personal development and reflection to 32 disadvantaged youth participants aged 16-22 years old with a view to understand their status as potential employee and to take acknowledge of practical means to benefit of learning and work opportunities.-By August 2021, 32 disadvantaged youth from the partner countries will be involved in work based learning schemes (Volunteering/Work placement/Training) at local levels.The project will focus on 3 key aspects:Multi level cooperation with stakeholders to find solutions in reducing discrepancies between the employees and the employers and matching young people skills with current and future labour demand. The project strongly connects our organizations and youth staff with key factors in youth education through the development of round tables sessions. Having stakeholders from different areas, will allow us to create a sharing&learning community wherein participating organizations, youngsters and stakeholders will exchange information and best practices as well as cooperate in identifying and pursuing improvements in adulthood transition and integration into the labour market. Partners through their youth workers will therefore collect, evaluate relevant practices, experiences and content produced by civil society actors across their communities in terms of youth adulthood transition and labor market integration to develop a comprehensive vision and common standards of action in the field. Our Youth workers will participate in an international seminar aiming to build up competences of youth workers from the partner countries to create strategic approaches that facilitate transition to career paths for disadvantaged youngsters whether through further education or through work based learning opportunities. The seminar will help us to identify support currently or potentially available to disadvantaged young people and consider how this might be aligned and packaged to ease their progress into and within the workplace and also to transfer different supportive services that facilitate young people transition into labor market such as: professional development program targeted to disadvantaged young people that facilitates professional exploration, development and reflection among them and work based learning strategies.Provision of career awareness and exploration opportunities in the labour market with a particular focus on disadvantaged youth categories from the partner countries.- through local and international mobility, 32 youngsters will be given the opportunity to understand their status as potential employees and to take advantage of practical means to benefit learning and work opportunities.
