CfP: Seminar International “3 nets 4 peace”, Franta

YAP and their partners have been working with young people with less opportunities (YPWLO) at a local, national and international level for a long time. The different organisations have been among the first ones to participate to the EVS “ short term” program and many of them were involved in the programs “ Step by Step” and “Further Steps”.

However, the persons working in the social field within the organisations have been changing and there is a need to gather together to work and to deepen our partnership on the topic of Inclusion.

During the March seminar called “3 nets 4 peace” that took place in Belgium, participants of the 3 networks (Alliance, SCI and YAP) met in order to strengh the links between the organisations on the field of inclusion. It appeared that YAP had no strategy of work for this area at the moment, even if it is always a priority.

The main objectives of this meeting are :

*

to know what has been done in the last years on the topic of inclusion

*

to share our experiences, points of view and methodologies on the work with YPWLO

*

to know each other's projects

to know hosting/sending possibilities for volunteers with less opportunities

*

to work on common projects with this target group

*

to have a long term strategy on inclusion
