Descrizione del progetto:
Poverty in Europe is higher than ever due to rising inflation, war in Ukraine and the young people are the most affected population within the EU population. According to Eurostat; in 2020, 24.2% of children (less than 18 years old) in the EU were at risk of poverty or social exclusion compared with 21.7% of adults. The poverty is rising in European countries constantly as youth workers, our role is to prevent that make the young people more resilient to these changes. In Spain, this ratio goes up to %35 according to the latest statistics. As 50.5% of children whose parents’ level of education was low were at risk of poverty compared with 7.7% of children whose parents’ level of education was high. The youth work’s role in this regard to promote more opportunities for young people to eliminate the inequalities derived from the poverty and lack of socio-economical situation. Usually, the poverty is evaluated about the means that the person has according to the social exclusion criteria provided by EuroStat. Though, we would like to provide the framework called Capabilities Approach to evalute the wellbeing of the communities. Capabilities approach was developed by Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum in response to concerns that the dominant mode of measuring a nation’s wellbeing focused solely on economic growth, or on ‘happiness.’ A focus on “those things that intrinsically matter” (Sen, 1992) rather than the means to achieve them, recognises that freedom and agency are vital aspects of the achievement of social justice, but also highlights the specific inequalities experienced by certain groups due to class, gender, race or disability.
The project will give practical tools for the youth workers to implement individualised learning plans, guidance and counselling tailored to the young person’s needs to promote the young person’s well-being. Moreover, the project contributed to the objective of the European Youth Strategy 2019-2027 as “Enable young people to be architects of their own lives, support their personal development and growth to autonomy, build their resilience and equip them with life skills to cope with a changing world”, by increasing the abilities of youth workers to make the young people autonomous and resilient.
The objectives of the project are:
-To equip youth workers for promoting well-being of young people by increasing their knowledge about the capability approach;
-To make youth workers able to provide and develop tailored opportunities for the young people with fewer opportunities;
– To make youth workers able to analyse and develop solutions concerning the issue of poverty within their own communities and develop new educational activities for young people by analysing their needs
– To make youth workers able to involve the young people with fewer opportunities to the development opportunities for themselves through youth participation projects;
– To develop partnerships in the field of youth work;
