Erasmus+ and the Benefits for Youth Workers

Youth workers often work with young people facing a wide range of opportunities and challenges.

Learning from Youth Work Across Europe

Erasmus+ provides a valuable space for youth workers to connect with professionals from other countries, share experiences and explore new approaches to youth engagement.

International training and job shadowing can help youth workers develop skills in areas such as:

  • Youth participation
  • Inclusion
  • Mental health and wellbeing awareness
  • Digital youth work
  • Community engagement
  • Supporting young people with fewer opportunities
  • Intercultural learning
  • Non-formal education

Developing Stronger Approaches Together

Working alongside youth professionals from different countries can also provide new perspectives on the challenges young people face.

Although communities may be different, many of the issues facing young people are shared across countries.

Erasmus+ creates opportunities to learn from each other and develop stronger approaches together.
