Partnership Building Activity Without You We Are One Less

Without You We Are One Less is a Partnership Building Activity among associations working with under-represented target groups, in particular young people with disabilities, in non-formal education projects which will take place in Italy from 2nd to 6th of March 2016.

What are we proposing?

A partnership building activity under Erasmus+ Key Action 1, building on past experience of participating associations and focusing on future steps under Erasmus+ Programme in working with young people who are highly under-represented; especially those with physical and sensorial disabilities in non-formal learning projects in intercultural context. The first part of the activity will be focused on analyzing the need of participating associations according to their target groups and second part will focus on possible partnership opportunities under KA1 or KA2 of the new Erasmus+ Programme.

When and where will it take place?

The project will take place in Italy (probably in Lazio or Umbria region) from 2nd to 6th of March, 2016 (3 working days + 2 travel days). The accommodation and food are provided by the hosting organization. Travel costs are also covered up to the limit established by Erasmus+ Programme.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for organizations who are working directly with target groups, that are under-represented in most intercultural non-formal learning activities; such as young people with physical or sensorial disabilities, young people with strong socio-economical problems etc. Both experienced organizations in offering non-formal learning opportunities to this target group and newcomers who demonstrate a solid interest in making more accessible projects for these categories are welcome to apply.
Each participant organization commits itself on sending 3 youth workers who has a clear idea on target group, working methods and future strategy of the association.
