Youth and volunteering

Youth and volunteering sectors

The volunteering sector plays and important role in all areas of society. People who selflessly devote their time and knowledge acquire new competences hardly achieved by other means. That is why the debate for the recognition of competences acquired through non-formal/informal pathways of training or experience will be subject of interest in this conference.

The youth between 18 and 25 years old have significant demands in the current economical situation. Both the ones with no training and job (NEETs), and the ones with a graduate looking for a job are priority sectors in the analysis of this conference. The initial qualification, the lifelong learning, and the career guidance are fields that involve the youth sectors. This conference invites to participation through the social movements representing them.
