A big part of Europe is covered with rural and remote territories. Sometimes it can be challenging to assure quality youth work non-formal learning and leisure time activities for young people living there. Mobile youth work is a form of youth work creating participation opportunities for young people in their living environment where youth centers do not exist and leisure time activities are limited.

Mobile youth work can be implemented by a team of youth workers who come to small communities on agreed schedule (ex. once a week) and provide youth work services. Also mobile youth workers can support local networks of stakeholders (ex. NGO, library, community and others) who provide non-formal education and youth work in their remote territory.

There are several ways how to provide mobile youth work with young people in rural territories. This will be your chance to explore and to exchange many different possibilities and practices and to find which is relevant for your reality.

Activity aims to foster quality mobile youth work provision in rural territories by training youth workers and youth affairs specialists on initiating, advocating and involving relevant stakeholders in mobile service provision.

This project is financed by the Erasmus+ Programme. Being selected for this course, all costs (accommodation, travel, visa, etc.) relevant to participation in the course will be covered by the NAs involved in this project - except a participation fee which varies from call to call and country to country.
