Hi again! This is for those of you who live in Armenia and who are interested in Youth Policy issues. The Pan Armenian International Youth Center Foundation (PAYICF), in cooperation with the International Center for Intercultural Research, Learning and DIalogue (ICIRLD), is organizing a training on “European Youth Policy, Structures and Programs.”
The training could be especially useful for people who are involved in youth policy related NGO works, as it is meant to facilitate the participation of local youth NGOs in Euoropean Youth Policy related processes, as well as will describe the basics of European Youth Policy.
My personal opinion is that there are many potentially strong NGO partners out there in Armenia, but they do not have a clear understanding of how exactly to establish the partnership or benefit from a number of projects offered by the European Youth Authorities.
Anyway, in case this is related to you, there are still 2 days left till the deadline, which is on November 30th. The training itself will take place December 4-9, 2008 in the Youth Center in Tsakhkadzor. You can use the link below to download the application and get more information on the event.
