The training course will contribute to developing youth workers' “Networking and Advocating”* competence based on the ETS Competence model for youth workers to work internationally:
  • To gain knowledge about youth policy, youth work system and recognition practices in one’s own and international context
  • To increase readiness to represent young people’s and youth workers’ needs, interests and rights
  • To develop skills in identifying relevant advocacy partners and targets in local and international environments
  • To increase skills in producing and communicating advocacy content in-person and online
  • To increase skills in networking and associating with peer professionals to reach an expected impact

*"Networking and advocating” competence means developing and managing partnerships with other relevant actors. It’s the ability to facilitate networking with others (in their community and outside it) and advocate for the value of youth work. It’s about being conscious on (political) values and beliefs and abilities to support young people in developing independent ‘political thought’. (Source: European Training Strategy Competence model for youth workers working internationally).


Highlights of this training activity:

This course is part of the Erasmus+ long-term accreditation programme implemented by NGO Awero and its partners. More about the programme: https://awero.org/en/ets-modular-trainings-and-certfication

Aligned to the ETS competence model for Youth Workers - the course objectives and content are aligned with professional competences expected for Facilitating Learning in international youth work settings.

It focuses primarily on the international youth work context, specifically on advocating for and representing the interests of young people and youth workers.

Certified training: The broad coalition of partners will create opportunities for the course participants to assess, validate, and recognise competence development internationally and in specific countries (if possible).

Digitally friendly - The training and competence assessment methodology and activities will include using digital tools and platforms, such as the YouthWorkPathways.net platform and digital Open Badges.

Long-term development opportunity—Participants willing to continue to develop their professional youth work competencies will be invited to apply for upcoming training courses in other competence areas.
