World Youth Skills Day is celebrated every year on 15th<\/sup> of July by UN decision and concerns lifelong learning. This day aims to emphasize the importance of developing the youth skills worldwide, for young people to overcome barriers in employment.<\/p>\n

The increase of youth unemployment is one of the most important problems that societies are facing. The active participation of young people in sustainable development efforts is crucial to achieve sustainable inclusive societies. However, young people are more likely to become unemployed, are mainly employed in inferior jobs, face bigger inequalities and the transition period from school to the labor market lasts longer.<\/p>\n

Aiming in empowerment of young people regarding their integration in the labor market and their employment, p-consulting.gr<\/a> participates as a project partner in European Erasmus+ \u039a\u03912 projects which aim at the development of youth skills, such as the following:<\/p>\n

\"\"\u201cDropping the Baggage\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The project \u201cDropping the Baggage \u2013 Investing in the future\u201d<\/a> aims to empower educators to provide a more personalized education and a holistic approach (according to the needs and skills of students), in order to reduce the rate of early school leaving. Moreover, the project aims to strengthen the skills of young people, both for their education and for their integration into the labor market.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"\u201cS4EG\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The project \u201cSkills For Employment: Acquiring employment skills in adult education through gamification\u201d<\/a> aims at developing the capacity of adult trainers to implement gamification as part of curricula to improve the basic competences of adult learners.
