Projects submitted under this call under both lots should aim at:

or

2.

Developing and implementing innovative methods and practices to foster inclusive education and/or youth environments in specific contexts.

Lot 1 — Education and training

Specific objectives:

1.

Promoting civic participation of young people by developing the role of volunteering for social inclusion;

2.

Preventing radicalisation leading to violent extremism of young people by reaching out to those at risk of marginalisation or social exclusion.
