Short description:

The goal of this project is to develop a model for tutoring socially excluded young people, whose motivation for education is very low. The keywords of this project are community adaptation, encouragement and active citizenship. The project is in the first place targeted towards students in initial vocational education. The project develops web-based guidelines for young people at risk of social exclusion and those working with them to increase social skills through peer group activities. The material will be produced in English, Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian and Dutch. Another goal of the project is also to enhance the training in social and health care in higher vocational training, so that future experts in this field and professionals working with young people would learn new working methods and models to face and encourage the youth..
