Erasmus+ projects in the field of youth aim to strengthen the capacities of organisations working with young people in Europe and beyond. Erasmus+ projects in the youth sector promote partnerships, knowledge exchange, empowering young people through innovative practices, developing skills and actively engaging young people in civic issues. Through funding and cooperation, inclusive, attractive and effective youth programmes are created, which are a prerequisite for personal growth and social cohesion.
In 2025, Georgia will participate in seven CB Youth projects. Georgian organizations will participate in six projects as partners, and one project will be coordinated by a Georgian organization (Table 1, Scheme 1). The project coordinated by Georgia is “Gamify Rural Youth Work”, led by the organization UMBRELLA. The main goal of the project is to engage young people living in rural areas in youth work, especially in the Eastern Partnership countries. The goal will be achieved through innovative curricula, gamification tools and capacity-building activities in youth organizations. During the initiative, a web platform will also be created, through which the core curriculum, gamification tools and an open online course will be available to maintain youth engagement and support youth work initiatives in rural areas.
