The project has been implemented by a transnational consortium comprising 7 organisations from 4 countries (Denmark, Greece, Italy, Romania).</div></div><div><br /></div><div>Published in March 2024 | Find <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DOfg87sxsFgy2m9QBk1zmveRn3srO1f_/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank">here</a></div>Mobility Centerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05904436903542966953noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8797257637680645972.post-75389578366539236302024-03-04T10:00:00.050+02:002024-03-05T16:42:32.935+02:00RAN C&N Working Group meeting on ‘AI: understanding & opportunities for P/CVE’<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQNBWy7GLi9eZQ00iYtRhQtY-EqTh_X9tuTUqo8b1KXQh47ZzVlu_f2Fxqg118TclWh4-4H2vLRN_Ac5iYM5X8WbkPLBO7x-IJmf5UPoAWVY-jmydYXo-M75gsI4wStzzOK3Y-gs3NqHxTDuh2BOQpX5cdIBINchW-ALdLQ8S0gFmA69v-KoQkqCWUL2y2/s820/Caravana%20GEYC-3.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="312" data-original-width="820" height="244" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQNBWy7GLi9eZQ00iYtRhQtY-EqTh_X9tuTUqo8b1KXQh47ZzVlu_f2Fxqg118TclWh4-4H2vLRN_Ac5iYM5X8WbkPLBO7x-IJmf5UPoAWVY-jmydYXo-M75gsI4wStzzOK3Y-gs3NqHxTDuh2BOQpX5cdIBINchW-ALdLQ8S0gFmA69v-KoQkqCWUL2y2/w640-h244/Caravana%20GEYC-3.png" width="640" /></a></div><a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Our Head of Digital participated last week at the RAN C&N Working Group meeting on ‘AI: understanding & opportunities for P/CVE’, organized in Prague, Czech Republic. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Among other matters, around 20 experts and first line practitioners who have experience with integrating AI in both online and offline preventing and countering violent extremism (P/CVE) work, discussed the challenges they face nowadays and brainstormed on how AI could actually help out to address those. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Thus, the main objective of this meeting was to obtain a deeper understanding of how AI could be used in a positive way within the realm of P/CVE and identifying practical opportunities to do so. To accomplish this goal, the meeting aims were:</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><ul><li>Understanding the potential benefits of using AI over traditional methods and technologies for P/CVE practitioners. As well as how online AI-based P/CVE interventions can complement more traditional interventions or those that do not integrate AI.</li><li>Identifying ways to make use of AI to help tackle challenges in P/CVE work.</li><li>Identifying challenges and solutions that need to be addressed when implementing the usage of AI in P/CVE work.</li><li>Identifying how the <a href="https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/press-room/20231206IPR15699/artificial-intelligence-act-deal-on-comprehensive-rules-for-trustworthy-ai" target="_blank">Artificial Intelligence Act</a> may impact the potential usage of AI in P/CVE within the EU.</li></ul></div><div style="text-align: justify;">One of the biggest concerns shared was the raise of right-wing extremist narratives, especially in the context of the recent or upcoming elections. The insights were extremely useful in preparation of the European Digital Youth Summit - <a href="https://www.edys.eu" target="_blank">EDYS24</a>, which will take place on the 19th of July 2024, in Bucharest. The main topic of both the discussion panel and workshops will be youth participation, taking into account three dimensions: digital, social and green. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div>This meeting encouraged participants to engage in discussions and work together in tackling the issue at hand. In order to facilitate these discussions and interactions, it was important to set the scene in a way that brings all participants on the same level of understanding. </div><div><ul><li>On day 1, participants introduced themselves in quick pitch-style slide carrousel. Next, a panel set the scene in terms of understanding current AI developments and already give some inspiration for potential usage of AI in P/CVE. The first day concluded with a ‘workshop’ session, where participants experimented with different AI tools in smaller groups and test their possibilities for application in P/CVE work.</li><li>On day 2, participants were encouraged to ‘dream big’: what would be a task division between P/CVE practitioners and their AI tools in the (near) future? On the other hand, it was also important to discuss ethical and legal boundaries of using AI, so a separate session was dedicated to this. The last session of the day focused on gathering tangible recommendations: for practitioners on starting to use AI in their work, and for the tech sector on what developments in AI would help practitioners.</li></ul></div></div><p></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8797257637680645972.post-51937405896653774712024-03-01T10:00:00.128+02:002024-03-02T00:52:37.082+02:00It's a wrap: European Fellowship on Youth Training and Education powered by Digital (EFYTED)<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

<p style="text-align: justify;margin-top:30px;">
Between 28th of February 2022 and 27th of February 2024, the collaborative
efforts of GEYC, Association Pokhara (Spain) and
<a href="https://www.aiforia.eu/association/" target="_blank">Aiforia</a
> (Germany) brought the project "Green Cities of YOUth: Increasing the
role of young people in the development of sustainable cities" to a successful
conclusion, contributing significantly to the key objectives outlined in the
<b
><a href="https://sdgs.un.org/2030agenda" target="_blank">2030 Agenda</a></b
>
for sustainable development. Addressing the
<a href="https://sdgs.un.org/goals" target="_blank">SDGs </a>7, 11, 12, 13,
and 15, the project focused on affordable and non-polluting energy,
sustainable cities and communities, responsible production and consumption,
climate action, and terrestrial ecosystems.
</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
The primary <b>objective </b>of the project was to empower young people,
particularly those with limited opportunities, by involving them in the
environmental enhancement process within their localities. Employing
environmental awareness as a catalyst for integrating this group, the project
set out to make a lasting impact.
</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
A comprehensive <b>methodological guide</b> was created to streamline the
ecological transformation of towns or neighborhoods with fewer than 15,000
inhabitants throughout the European Union, actively involving young people in
the process.
</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
To achieve these ambitious goals, extensive preparation, training,
awareness-raising, and implementation activities unfolded across the
<b>three partner towns</b>: Freiburg, Germany; Bucharest, Romania and Ciudad
Real, Spain.
</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
The project's reach extended further through <b>multiplier events</b> held in
each country, serving as a platform for disseminating the results and the
methodology developed over the course of the initiative. This ensured a wider
impact and greater visibility for the project's achievements.
</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
A heartfelt acknowledgment goes out to the <b>dedicated participants</b> who
brought this project to life, leaving an indelible mark on their communities.
Their collective efforts have not only brought the "Green Cities of YOUth"
project to realization, but have also made a substantial difference in growing
sustainability and environmental consciousness.

<p>Cea de-a patra Caravană GEYC se apropie, iar noi suntem entuziasmați să vă anunțăm că aceasta va avea loc anul acesta în luna martie în următoarele orașe: Sighetu Marmației, Satu Mare, Oradea și Zalău!
</p>
<p>
De această dată ajungem în Nord-Vestul României la granițele cu Ucraina și Ungaria - în județe cheie în contextul solidarității cu refugiații ucraineni, cât și în ceea ce privește integrarea țării noastre în spațiul Schengen. S-a spus adesea că e un tărâm uitat ancorat în tradiții, cu biserici de lemn şi obiceiuri de când lumea.
</p>
<p>
În luna martie venim în fiecare an cu evenimente atractive odată cu aniversarea Comunității GEYC. Ne dorim să ajungem în toate regiunile României și să dezvoltăm o rețea de tineri activi, implicați și informați.

<p>Suntem nerăbdători să ne întâlnim cu tineri activi din aceste localități și să împărtășim experiențe și cunoștințe despre proiectele europene, mobilități, activitatea GEYC, voluntariat și alegerile parlamentare europene din 2024. Vom discuta despre toate aceste aspecte în cadrul colțurilor de învățare, fiecare fiind facilitat de către un membru implicat GEYC. Tinerii vor avea oportunitatea să descopere lucruri noi din fiecare colțișor, patru la număr, și să savureze procesul schimbului de experiență și informații utilizând educația nonformală și instrumente de gamificare.

<div style="text-align:justify;">
<p>În urmă cu 4 luni am aflat că urmează să mă mut în Geneva, Elveția pentru a lucra la CERN. CERN este Laboratorul European pentru Fizica Particulelor, acolo unde fizicienii și inginerii folosesc cele mai mari și mai complexe instrumente științifice din lume pentru a studia particulele fundamentale.
</p>
<p>
Trebuie să recunosc că background-ul meu a fost axat pe științe umaniste, am terminat o facultate de Comunicare, sunt pasionată de istorie și filosofie și mai ales, nu sunt expertă în fizică (însă CERN nu este doar despre fizică).
</p>
<p>
Articolul de față își propune să promoveze o oportunitate care poate nu se face atât de vizibilă precum ar merita. De la un membru GEYC către ceilalți membrii ai comunității GEYC, trebuie să vă spun că locul acesta merită pe deplin, dacă totuși locul de muncă nu te-ar interesa, cu siguranță ar trebui să fie pe Bucket List-ul tău de vizitare când ajungi în zonă.

<h2 style="margin-top:30px;">Programul pentru studenți cu profil tehnic</h2>
<p>
Nu există un mod mai bun de a învăța decât la locul de muncă. Când acel loc de muncă se întâmplă să fie într-o organizație de renume mondial și centru de excelență științifică, cu atât mai bine. Dacă ești în timpul studiilor universitare în domeniul fizicii aplicate, al ingineriei sau al informaticii și ești în căutarea unui stagiu de practică sau a unui loc unde să-ti finalizezi lucrarea, ai putea petrece între 4 și 12 luni la CERN în timpul studiilor (licență sau master). Se poate acorda o prelungire de până la maximum 14 luni.
</p>
<h2 style="margin-top:30px;">Programul pentru studenți cu profil administrativ</h2>
<p>
Programul pentru studenți administrativi se adresează tinerilor care studiază administrație, comunicare, domeniul juridic, traduceri, contabilitate, marketing etc. pentru a petrece o perioadă de formare de 2 până la 12 luni în timpul studiilor (licență sau master). Se poate acorda o prelungire de până la maximum 14 luni.</p>
<h2 style="margin-top:30px;">Programul ORIGIN</h2>
<p>
<blockquote>"O cale de dezvoltare a următoarei generații de experți în domeniul științific, tehnic și administrativ. Originea. Acolo unde începe cariera ta."</blockquote>
Este dedicat profesioniștilor aflați la începutul carierei, pe baza unor criterii specifice (verifică link-ul de mai jos) pentru tinerii dintr-un stat membru sau asociat al CERN, care nu au mai avut niciodată un contract similar la CERN.
</p>
<h2 style="margin-top:30px;">Beneficii</h2>
<p>
Pentru programele Technical și Administrative ai:
<ul>
<li>un contract de asociere între 2 și 12 luni cu posibilitate de prelungire,</li>
<li>3407 Franci Elvețieni (net) pe lună,</li>
<li>o remunerație de călătorie către Geneva,</li>
<li>în funcție de circumstanțele tale dacă ai copii sau ești într-un parteneriat recunoscut de lege poți primi un supliment monetar,</li>
<li>o asigurare medicală valabilă în toate țările și</li>
<li>2,5 zile pe lună plătite ca concediu.</li>
</ul>
Pentru programul Origini ai:
<ul>
<li>un salariu de 4500 Franci Elvețieni (net),</li>
<li>asigurare medicală valabilă pe tot globul,</li>
<li>30 de zile libere plătite pe an,</li>
<li>în funcție de situația ta vei primi un grant de instalare pentru tine și/sau familia ta și ajutor financiar dacă ești căsătorit sau ai copii,</li>
<li>training la job și</li>
<li>un contract de angajat între 6 și 24 de luni cu posibilitatea de extindere până la 36 de luni.</li>
</ul>
Lista de beneficii este mai lungă, iată <a href="https://careers.cern/benefits" target="_blank">aici si altele</a>.
În cazul în care te-am făcut curios, <a href="https://careers.smartrecruiters.com/CERN/entry-levels" target="_blank">aici</a> găsești informații, dar și <a href="https://careers.smartrecruiters.com/CERN/students" target="_blank">aici</a>.
<h2 style="margin-top:30px;">Ce ai nevoie</h2>
<ul>
<li>Să rămâi înregistrat ca student (pentru Technical si Administrativ, cei mai mulți studenți preferă să-și înghețe perioada în care vor fi plecați)</li>
<li>Să fi completat deja 18 luni de studiu (fie în ciclu de licență sau în cel de master);</li>
<li>Să fii dintr-o țară membră sau asociată (PS: România este una dintre țările membre);</li>

This Booklet is the main outcome of the Erasmus+ project "<b>Tools For YOU*!</b>" (<a href="https://erasmus-plus.ec.europa.eu/projects/search/details/2023-1-PT02-KA153-YOU-000145268" target="_blank">2023-1-PT02-KA153-YOU-000145268</a>), developed in Lisbon - Portugal, produced to support youth workers, trainers and organisations working with youth in NEET situation (not in employment, education, or training), improving the quality of the work developed.<br><br>
The idea of the project was formed following the participation in the “Inspirational Study Visit - Services for youth in NEET situation in Finland”, during January 2023, that gave the participants an overview of different services for NEET, including services of municipal
youth work and several NGO in Tampere - Finland. All the participant organisations in the Study Visit work daily with youngsters in NEET, and identify the need to train the youth workers with specific tools and methods to work with young people, especially in NEET situation. Not only share and discover new tools and methods, learning from each other, but also have a better understanding of the implementation of those tools and methods, by experiencing them in a practical way.

This guide was created with the aim of being a reference for educators and
families in terms of information and resources on issues related to sexual
education for children and teenagers between the ages of 9 and 15.
Specifically, the guide aims to provide information and materials in the
field of prevention of inappropriate gender and sexual behaviour and
sexual education in values from an early age. The main contents covered
are equality, sexual diversity, consensus and consent, self-care, caring
for others, love and emotions, stereotypes, and the consumption of
pornography.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The different topics of the guide have been elaborated after an exhaustive
review of the scientific literature and the participation of different
interest groups, thanks to the collaborative work of experts in the field
from different European countries.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In today’s society, there can still be a lack of knowledge in formal
education about issues related to sexuality education, not only about what
they involve, but also about when it is most appropriate to start talking
about them in the classroom or how it is best to approach them. This guide
will help educators and families to decide in how they can approach some
of the issues related to sexuality education that may be complicated.

>DisinformACTION! - Countering climate change disinformation through
youth e-participation</b
></span
></i
>
</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
DisinformACTION! is a 24-month project implemented by a consortium of four
organizations, aiming to boost young people's ability to identify and counter
online misinformation related to climate change. The program encourages them
to become active citizens in their local communities, particularly concerning
climate and environmental issues.
</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Educational Impact:</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
The teachers have been trained to deliver four one-hour sessions forming the
Climate Change Ambassadors Methodology:
</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Chapter 1: Critical Online Citizens</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Chapter 2: Effective Online Communication</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
Chapter 3: Digital Tools for Online Engagement
</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Chapter 4: Climate Change Ambassadors</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
During these sessions, students acquired knowledge on identifying online
misinformation, especially regarding climate change issues, and learned about
useful digital tools for online activism, all through non-formal education
methods. By implementing these sessions in the classroom, teachers contributed
to educating students in these crucial areas.
</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><b>Recognition:</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
The title of "Centru European DisinformACTION" has been awarded to the top 3
schools that have sent the highest number of teachers for training:

</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
On 29 and 30 November, Diana Ionita, our Head of Digital, took part in a
consultative meeting in Strasbourg, at the European Youth Centre, which
brought together youth workers and experts in the field of youth participation
in Digital Governance, to explore current and emerging opportunities for young
people to participate in digital and internet governance processes.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The consultative meeting about youth participation in
Digital Governance and its role in the 2030 Strategy of the Council
of <span style="text-align: justify;"
>Europe youth sector supports the </span
><a
href="https://www.coe.int/en/web/youth/about-us"
style="text-align: justify;"
>Council of Europe Youth Department </a
><span style="text-align: justify;"
>in engaging meaningfully with the relevant questions and suggest priorities
within this area of work. </span
>
</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The objectives of the consultative meeting were:
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<ul>
<li>
to review the current and recent developments in Digital Governance,
especially those connected with youth participation and young people’s
access to rights,
</li>
<li>
to create a common understanding and overview of how the topic of youth
participation in digital governance relates to the work of the Youth
Department, especially in relation to the current priorities of the Youth
Sector and in relation to connected topics (Artificial Intelligence
Literacy, digital citizenship education, youth participation),
</li>
<li>
to make proposals to consistently integrate a focus on digital governance
in Youth for Democracy programme in the period 2024-2027, particularly in
respect to non-formal education and youth work, human rights education and
youth participation,
</li>
<li>
to provide direction for future contributions to, or participation in,
external processes on digital governance, and identify spaces and
conditions for meaningful youth participation.
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
GEYC's Head of Digital contributed actively to the reflections and was
particularly interested in these issues in the frame of the enhancement of the
digital dimension of youth work through:
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- the launching of the European Standard of Quality in Youth Projects -
<a
href="https://www.geyc.ro/2023/10/european-quality-in-youth-projects.html"
target="_blank"
>EQYP 2.0</a
>, which overlapped the initial five pillars - Project management, Non-formal
education, Communication, Financial planning, Partnerships - on three
essential dimensions - green, social inclusion, and digital transformation.
This updated version aims to respond to the current challenges at European and
international levels.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- the 6th edition of the European Digital Youth Summit (<a
href="https://www.edys.eu"
target="_blank"
>EDYS24</a
>), which will be organized in July 2024 and will tackle digital citizenship
and youth participation in the digital era, responding to the current
challenges of democracies in our societies.

Tinerii nu reprezintă doar viitorul, ci și pilonul care poate duce la schimbări pentru protecția mediului și adoptarea practicilor durabile. Prin înțelegerea complexității problemelor legate de schimbările climatice, gestionarea resurselor naturale și impactul activităților umane asupra mediului, elevii nu devin doar informații, ci și agenți activi ai schimbării. De ce este importantă această educație? Deoarece oferă instrumentele necesare pentru a genera conștientizarea în rândul tinerilor.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span> </span>Într-un efort de a promova această conștientizare și acțiuni concrete în rândul celor tineri, atelierele Eco Echo au pășit în scenă în noiembrie 2022, încheindu-se în aprilie 2023. Această inițiativă a fost concepută pentru a oferi tinerilor cu vârste între 11 și 19 ani oportunitatea de a se conecta cu aspectele despre protecția mediului, schimbările climatice și sustenabilitatea prin intermediul a șase ateliere inovatoare. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span> </span>Organizate și facilitate de voluntari din Corpul European de Solidaritate din cadrul Asociației GEYC, aceste ateliere au o paletă diversificată de subiecte, de la "Plastic" și "Deșeuri Alimentare și Deșeuri de Apă", "Hârtie", "Reciclare/Upcycling" până la "Energie Regenerabilă" și "Campanii Online", abordând aspectele cheie ale mediului. Prin colaborări cu instituțiile de învățământ, acestea au ajuns la 10 școli și licee din București și Câmpina, inclusiv în zonele periferice. </p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span> </span>Un aspect inovator al inițiativei Eco Echo a fost abordarea holistică, care a inclus nu doar aspectele teoretice ale sustenabilității, ci și promovarea schimbării comportamentale. Atelierele au avut un efect de multiplicare, cu alte instituții și asociații exprimând interesul de a implementa metodologia în țările lor, ceea ce sugerează un potențial de impact și inovație la nivel internațional.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="white-space: normal;"><span> </span>Răspunsul comunității a fost unul extraordinar, cu rezultate de impact. Cu 281 de ateliere desfășurate, peste 1500 de elevi au fost direct implicați, existând astfel și beneficiarii indirecți de la profesori, părinți, prieteni până la comunitatea GEYC, contribuind astfel la extinderea impactului inițiativei. Pe platformele online, inițiativa a ajuns la peste 11,550 de persoane, subliniind dorința comunității de a se implica în discuții despre mediu și sustenabilitate.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span> </span>Cu privirea către viitor, atelierele Eco Echo își propun să își extindă acoperirea și să atingă un număr și mai mare de elevi.
