Employability Guide for Youth - Swedish and Georgian Perspectives project arises from the specific needs of youth entering the labor market and thus specific needs of NGOs, public bodies and their youth workers, which are active in this field and working with this sector of youth. It is their task to encourage young people in being self-initiative and taking risks at the beginning of their working life. Project is coordinated and facilitated by Ung Fritid cooperation with Center for Development and Democracy. Young people encounter difficulties in the transition from education to labor market. While theoretical knowledge about the labor market can be gained at schools and formal institutions, the youth workers are there to develop their sense of active approach of new generations of youth towards entrepreneurship and to help them to face challenges and surmount the difficulties. “Y and Z” generations of youth have lots of ideas on how to set up a business, create community projects or voluntary actions. They are enthusiastic to make a change in their lives and communities but lack the skill of how to initiate, develop an idea until a long-term result, react immediately to unexpected changes, perceive reality objectively, recognize their real needs and opportunities, work independently or in a team in a long-term. Public institutions, Youth workers and NGOs face similar challenges; entrepreneurship is a common learning need for both groups. Our aim is to address this need. The project aims to show different opportunities and how they help in shaping their professional future. Being involved in volunteering projects, working in NGOs can make a great impact on the youngsters.
