The freely available brochure presents in short the seven intellectual outputs from the European Erasmus KA2 project “Youth in transition” (YIT), October 2018 – March 2021.
The intellectual outputs form a coherent concept, containing findings from empirical data and desk research, as well as models, methods and tools emerging out of practice-based work with NEETs and professionals in Denmark, Iceland and Slovenia.
The cross-national production processes and their results were quality assured by researchers from the University of Hamburg.
The freely accessible materials offer expertise in scaffolding the most vulnerable sub-group of the NEETs on their pathways. These ´young people on the edge´are characterized by a complexity of personal and social problems, caused by psychological or physical diagnoses, socially disadvantaged backgrounds, social dysfunctionalities such as drugs and crime or other obstacles in life.
YIT focused on cross-professional support before and during the individual pathways of the NEETs, aligning their dreams with vocational maturity, with self-support via job or education as the final goal.
The brochure was coordinated and authored by vocational consultant Regina Lamscheck-Nielsen, Moeve, Denmark, a partnering organization in YIT. The author cooperated closely with experts from the partner organizations in the four countries.
