📰 Spreading the Word: YES Project Featured in Local Press & Media! 🗞️✨

Sharing the results of our work is just as important as creating them! Throughout our 2-year YES: Youth Employment Skills journey (2024–2026), IN-PLANET has actively spread project outcomes through social media, public events, non-formal Project Cafés, and specialized workshops for youth workers. 🤝🚀

A huge highlight of our local community dissemination was being featured in a full-page article in the regional newspaper "Agia Varvara - Our Town" (Η πόλη μας)!

The article celebrates the success of our Erasmus+ KA210 initiative, spotlighting how our team:
✔️ Empowered young job seekers with fewer opportunities to bridge the gap into the labor market.
✔️ Equipped local youth workers and NGOs with essential toolkits for soft skills, CV prep, and modern AI/digital literacy.
✔️ Built strong local partnerships between young talent and employers.

A big thank you to our community, partners, and local media for helping us amplify youth empowerment! 💙

🏢 Building Bridges Between Employers & Young Talent! 🤝✨

Creating meaningful internship opportunities requires understanding on both sides! As part of our YES: Youth Employment Skills project, IN-PLANET and ZIP present “Intern Tips for Employers”—a video resource and practical guide designed to support businesses and organizations hosting young interns.

Shaped by real insights gathered during hands-on study visits in both urban (Riga, Athens) and rural (Liepāja, Larissa) regions, our youth workers met directly with diverse companies to understand their needs, expectations, and challenges.

🔎 What Employers Will Gain: ✔️ Structured Onboarding & Mentorship: Practical ways to guide young professionals taking their first steps in the workplace.

✔️ Bridging Communication & Skills Gaps: Adaptable methods tailored to different industries and local labor realities.

✔️ Inclusive Internship Culture: Practical solutions to help overcome barriers faced by young people with fewer opportunities.

By equipping employers with clear guidance, we are fostering more inclusive workplaces and building stronger bridges between young talent and the labor market! 🌟

🌊 Day 10: The Grand Finale of the Trash Art Project! 🎓✨
What an emotional, inspiring, and unforgettable final day! Today we closed the loop on our 10-day journey by reflecting on how much we have grown, making lasting commitments to our planet, and celebrating our new skills.

Here is how we spent our final day together:

💼 Green Entrepreneurs: Working in mixed international teams, participants channeled everything they learned about upcycling and sustainability to design and present their very own eco-friendly business models. The future of green enterprise is looking bright!

🪨 Promises to the Sea: In a deeply symbolic activity, everyone collected a stone from the beach, wrote a personal promise to the environment on it, and threw it into the sea—sealing our commitment to protecting nature long after this project ends.

🕵️‍♂️ Secret Friend Reveal: After days of anonymous kindness and dynamic group energy, we finally revealed our "secret friends" in a hilarious and heartwarming way!

🔄 Full Circle Reflection: We sat down to revisit the fears, expectations, and contributions we wrote down on Day 1. It was incredible to see how many fears disappeared and how many expectations were completely exceeded.

🇪🇺 Youthpass Ceremony: To wrap up the official program, participants reflected on the key competencies they gained over the last 10 days and officially received their Youthpass certificates—a valuable European recognition of their non-formal learning journey.

Thank you to every single participant, partner organization, and leader who made this project an absolute masterpiece of art, teamwork, and environmental action! 🌍❤️🎨
