Modern world strugles with the problem of unemployment, especially the one affecting young people. With rapidly changing conditions in the labor market it becomes important to search for solutions that will allow young people to present their skills.

The long-term goal of the project is to increase the level of professional activation of unemployed youth, located in the environment of the organization and preventing it from social exclusion. Working locally, we want to participate in making long term changes in the European Community.
One of the elements of the workshop will be a meeting on 24 September at 19.00 in the conference room in Hostel Olimp, during which the results of the project SIVIM (Social Inclusion through Virtual Mobility International) will be presented.
