Our activities as well involve acknowledging skills and attitude to play an active role in society at the local, national and European level by being acquainted with the non-formal education methods and promote them in the field of youth work.


Second, SERGED is working at local level to educate youth leaders and workers on inclusion - how to include and engage in projects marginalized group and motivate young people to participate in trainings, volunteer initiatives locally or internationally; how to motivate them to stay with the organization, to feel valued and more engaged and responsible for the processes in the organization.
