„ The Study visit

Young people in rural and geographically isolated areas often simply don’t get all the information that is available in the busy city-centers. Distances and lack of public transport and infrastructure make it more difficult to set up international projects. This study visit will allow participants to visit youth organizations and governmental structures working with rural youth in Armenia, to explore their good practices and approaches and reflect on those in relation to the participants’ home realities designed for youth workers involved in rural youth work and young people from rural areas.

The participants will also be able to explore opportunities and challenges facing these young people in their local, national and international contexts. Participants will have an opportunity to reflect on their own realities, network with potential project partners and focus on the importance of organizations.
