Priority will be given to activities centring on work with young people with special needs, or in difficult circumstances. For people who are planning, managing or are involved in European youth projects, the National Agencies may offer training courses, short study visits, information days etc. More information on dates, content and conditions for participation can be obtained from the National Agencies. Youth information Information is a necessary complement to activities carried out by those involved in the field of informal education. Information activities can facilitate access, greater co-operation and the development of new activities in this field.
Information is also a specific area of activity within the youth sector.
Some organisations and public bodies have specialised in the provision of information to young people. Others, though not exclusively concerned with young people, have young people as their main target public. Organisations interested in carrying out information projects may also get support for partner finding, feasibility activities for innovative projects, exchange of experience and networking. In addition, through regular calls for projects the European Commission supports information campaigns targeted at young people on the issues covered by the programme.
