Aim of the project:
“KU” starts from the following problems that have been identified at the hosting community: most young people are selfish. Though smarter and more creative than those in previous generations, they are losing more and more interest in an outdated education system that is no longer anchored in the reality they live in. In this context, they become devoid of interest, equating any form of learning with useless school, and in the absence of passions, they rely to “social media models”.
So our aim is to tacked this problem, mainly by coming with a set of activities that will shift the idea of passive learning into pro-active learning. We intend to start a change in local youth, by empower them with tools to organize and develop their own style of learning.
Objectives of the project:
1. Develop the social / civic and intercultural competencies necessary for a more dynamic / more active lifestyle.
2. Open to adopting, as appropriate, good manners and volunteering in their own lifestyle.
Learning goals:
EVS is a learning opportunity, so we have set for each volunteer a set of learning competences to be achieved.
-Interpersonal, intercultural and social competences
-Civic competences
-Cultural understanding and manifestation
-Basic communication level in English and Romanian languages
-Basic journalistic skills
-Digital competences
A personal learning plan will be set by each volunteer at arrival in the host community, with the guidance of the mentor. At the end of the stage this learning plan will be assessed and translated in the Youth-Pass certificate.
