Youth can do everything – From trust to work
The project is an innovative approach to include inactive NEETs in the labor market. NEET persons are considered to be young people aged 15 to 29 who are neither in employment nor in education or training and are not registered in the register of unemployed persons of the Croatian Employment Service.
The aim of the project is to pilot an approach to the reach and education of inactive NEET people in the City of Zagreb and Krapina-Zagorje County, in accordance with the development goals of the Zagreb Urban Agglomeration.
The project plans activities that include the entire process of selecting beneficiaries through the implementation of public campaigns and motivating potential beneficiaries, developing their competencies in accordance with the needs and opportunities of the labor market and providing comprehensive and individualized support in job search.
