The aim of the project JOBNET is to highlight and promote innovative bottom-up solutions Europe-wide aimed at combating youth unemployment. The main objective of the project is to build a trans-frontier network of civil society organisations (CSOs) to identify, share, discuss and encourage initiatives successfully tackling youth unemployment in different European countries which can be deployed in other EU states as well. The project intends to involve unemployed youth as actives citizens following the principle: “Nothing about us, without us”.

In the frame of the project six CSOs from Germany, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, Croatia and Latvia closely cooperate with each other and all key actors to raise public awareness on importance of active citizenship, citizens’, CSOs’ initiatives tackling youth unemployment. The trans-frontier network of wide stakeholders explores the background of the problem by conducting a comparative international audiovisual research in the respective countries. At an international conference participants exchange information, knowledge on successfully applied practises handling youth unemployment, e.g. entrepreneurship, skill development, internships, guidance & mentoring, combating early school-leaving, youth banks and youth involvement, empowerment techniques. The network will serve as a platform and resource-base to disseminate practices how to help young jobseekers to understand labour market, economic and job crisis, and methods of pioneering solutions to stimulate job growth and job seeking techniques.

The outcomes of the research and European debate (conference) will be published on DVD, a publication will be prepared containing best practices of these countries. These along with a commonly formulated recommendation will be sent to decision/policy makers of the respective countries and EU besides wide range dissemination to the public and actors affected by, interested in the increasing tendency of youth joblessness.
