Values
Cooperation
Involvement
Transparency
Responsibility
Reliability
Quality To learn from each other;
not to lose a single bit in the rush for excellence;
To celebrate achievements and to be aware of faults. Most of all: to do ourselves what we teach to young people.
Great Idea
Three cities – three pillars of the project: Youth Resource Centre in Riga – a place for meeting
and joint activities of the organisations
WWW portal for young people from Tallinn
Non-formal learning methodology from Stockholm
Non-formal learning, equality, involvement
and intercultural values

What will still take place in
2013?
Succession – at the end of 2012 the Youth Centre will continue operating within the framework of the Department
Document Knowledge Manual for work with youth
Terminological dictionary in four languages
Project experience, the ‘interactive package’ prepared for propagation of youth centres
Enforce sustainability – strong, internationally networking, popular youth organisations, an ‘incubator’ of new organisations
Innovative youth portal Playtodo.com for dissemination in the Central Baltic Region
Immediate Sustainability
Riga: Youth Resource Centre “Kaņieris”
institutionally asimilated in 2012, continues
beyond project
Stockholm: methodology focused on youth being
able to co-work for their own creative meetings
and events, skills last beyond project
Tallinn: youth leaders use existing youth centres’
network plus new web-application to
disseminate skills and work with “Kaņieris” in
Riga
