About the project
ENT4NEET project, co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union, seeks to promote an exchange of good practices among European youth organizations active for the socio-economic integration of young people at risk of exclusion, namely NEETs (young persons not engaged in education, employment or training), through the enhancement of their "soft skills".
The Skills Panorama (Cedefop) defines Soft skills as cross-cutting across jobs and sectors, and related to personal competences (confidence, discipline, self-management...) and social competences (teamwork, communication, emotional intelligence...).
With a total grant of EUR 72.763,00, the project activities will cover at least 5 European countries, involving the same number of project partners:
