[hr-education] Educational Evaluation in Youth Work

T-Kit No. 10 - Educational Evaluation in Youth Work (18/06/2007)

In 1998, the Council of Europe and the European Commission decided to take
common action in the field of European youth worker training. Both
institutions therefore initiated a Partnership agreement, whose aim was
"to promote active European citizenship and civil society by giving
impetus to the training of youth leaders and youth workers working within
a European dimension". This agreement has since been renewed several times
and additional agreements were initiated in the fields of "youth research"
and "Euro-med co-operation".

Since 2005, all Partnership activities have merged into one single
framework Partnership agreement, which focuses on the following topics:
European Citizenship; human rights education and intercultural dialogue;
quality and recognition of youth work and training; better understanding
and knowledge of youth; youth policy development. The Partnership between
the Council of Europe and the European Commission in the field of youth
thus brings together the two institutions' experience in non-formal
education, youth policy, youth research and youth work practice.

The co-operation between the two institutions covers a wide spectrum of
activities and publications, including the Training Kits. T-Kits are
thematic publications written by experienced youth trainers and constitute
easy-to-use handbooks for use in educational activities.

All Partnership activities and publications enhance the exchange of
experience and good practice between the actors involved, are embedded in
a structured dialogue and contribute to the implementation of the
political objectives of both partners. Since 1998, more than 1.200 young
people participated directly in these activities and many more were able
to benefit from this experience through the Partnership publications.

T-Kits are produced by the Partnership in English, French and German.
Several of them are also available in other languages following national
initiatives. Please consult the web-site www.youth-partnership.net for
updated information on T-Kits and translations.
