Objectives

The main goal of the project is to exchange best practices in youth policy in small towns, enhance the quality of partner activities in this area, and develop competencies and knowledge among both youth workers and young people themselves.

The project also aims to establish solid foundations to encourage young people to return to their small hometowns and to develop tools and methods supporting youth policy in cities.
