EUROPEAN PRO ACTIVE YOUTH GENERATION
E-PAYG is an association that aims to support the inclusion of all vulnerable young people (youth) in society by building reassuring points of reference with them and for them, in order to develop or maintain a balance and autonomy in their personal and professional lives. It is an ethical and transparent association that puts people at the heart of its project. We defend the idea that training and physical mobility (Erasmus+ project) are a vector for professional integration and personal development. To achieve this, our association will offer training courses aimed at the social and professional integration of young people. Our association's activities will take the form of exchanges: meetings, seminars, events and multi-disciplinary training courses, focusing on the following themes: - Employability: supporting the development of awareness and knowledge of soft skills, through internships/artistic expression//fighting discrimination in the workplace. - Supporting education in the digitization of society: helping isolated and vulnerable people to make the best use of new technologies (e.g. internet/media: fight against fakenews). - Raising awareness and supporting ecological and environmental transition: our organization is concerned with ecological issues and places ecological approaches at the heart of its projects. - Promoting inclusion, solidarity and interculturalism: we advocate tolerance and respect for everyone in their diversity. we fight against racial, social and religious discrimination. to this end, we encourage dialogue between young people of all origins and backgrounds. - Promoting cultural and artistic expression: we believe in personal development and expression through art, which is why we include and respect all art forms (dance, painting, street art, cooking, photography, etc.). All our activities and programs are accompanied by our members: before, during and after the projects. These activities will take place on a national, European and/or international scale. Our association aims to offer training courses with the objective of social and professional integration of young people. E-Payg is a newcomer organization in the Erasmus+ program. however, all members of the organization have experience in this area and program. in fact, they have all been participants in several erasmus+ projects, which allows them to know the expectations of this type of program. members of the organization have also coordinated Erasmus+ projects and also have a master’s degree in project management and european affairs and relations. Thanks to their academic background and experience in Erasmus+ programs, they therefore have the opportunity to develop local and European/international partnerships, lead meetings at local and European level (icebreaker, development of animation tools, team-building activities for participants), organizer of information meetings (adapted to different targets depending on the project), support project participants, raise awareness among young people about erasmus+ programs, participates in the organizer of welcoming European groups, project dissemination.
