EXPLORE YOUTHPASS

About the project

As many countries are reforming public education and considering the fact that, no formal education and intercultural learning are key elements in this transition, it is always more noticeable the need for recognition of non formal competences.

Perhaps, such issue is one of the most debated in the youth field, among youth workers and policy makers. One of the main steps related to the topic was the launch of Youthpass in 2007 with the aim of supporting the validation and recognition of non-formal learning in Europe within the framework of the Youth in Action programme.
