YIPPEE’s Transnational Project Meeting 39/29/2023 On the 25th and 26th of September, YIPPEE’s partners participated in a Transnational Project Meeting to discuss the Project Results (PR) and to plan action to achieve them. For this event, partners participated both in-person, in Ankara, and online. As of the moment of this post, the Platform for Open Educational Resources (PR3) is being developed and will soon be tested by participants from the partners’ countries. Then, the Platform will become available to everyone that want to access learning materials produced by the project.
During the TPM, partners could also share updates about the Guidelines for Cross-sectoral co-operation for inclusive youth work (PR4). The deliverables include YIPPEE’s Manifesto, to foster and promote effective integration of young immigrants in youth work in the field of social inclusion, and a Glossary, to create a common understanding and vision regarding the topics addressed by the project. As this initiative will also create a Protocol for Certification of Competencies (PR5), which will work as a procedural document containing all the key aspects of the new created learning approach and training path, the partnership also dedicated time to discuss the content and the timeframe that will be needed to complete it. Finally, the TPM’s participants had the chance not only to take an overview on the management of YIPPEE’s project, but also to share experiences regarding the PRs and to plan the Multiplier Events, which will take place latter this year.

YIPPEE’s partners believe that the creation of a social multicultural environment, that values and includes everyone regardless of their background, is a fundamental aspect to consider when involving and including young Europeans and migrants in events. It is also important for youth workers to adopt inclusive values, beliefs and emotional competencies to guide their approach when facilitating workshops.
Based on these ideas, the project developed a practical handbook, with principles, approaches and steps for stakeholders and youth workers to facilitate quality sustainable events that include young Europeans, young refugees, asylum seekers and migrants. The Youth Inclusion Scheme also includes case studies based on the workshops that all six partners promoted in their countries, namely Austria, Sweden, Ireland, Turkey, Italy and Portugal. The workshops’ goals were to encourage intercultural groups of young people to become examples of positive change in their local communities, to foster intercultural and multilingual competencies and to support social integration. A variety of topics, such as cultural evenings, food sharing, language exchanges, life experiences sharing, storytelling, sports and active citizenship, was covered in these events.
