The Support Centre for Voluntary Organizations
from Capitanata (Ce.Se.Vo.Ca.) is an association of
associations, which counts among its members 287
nonprofit organizations in the province of Foggia,
mainly voluntary organizations.
The main purpose of Ce.Se.Vo.Ca is the promotion
and support of volunteering. This aim is achieved
through the implementation of a range of services, which are offered free of charge to
voluntary organizations, registered or not in their regional registries.
The services offered are:
a) advice and assistance in administrative, tax, accounting and legal;
b) support in the project managment;
c)
promotion of volunteering;
d) the development of training courses;
e)
communication through a magazine, newsletter, website and social networks;
f)
documentation, thanks to the presence of a small library area with books and
magazines;
g) promotion of networking between voluntary organizations;
h) logistical support.
The activities carried out by the Ce.Se.Vo.Ca. are financed by law each year by 1/15 of
the profits of the banking foundations.
The proper allocation and use of these funds is subject to the supervision of the
“Regional Management Committee" (Co.Ge.) from Puglia.

2. Project
In the Puglia Region and particularly in
the city of Manfredonia there is a high
unemployment rate, especially among
young and women, and the number of
NEETs is high ( 32.8 %). Although there is a
regional program on youth policies called
"Bollenti Spiriti" and a tool called "Citizen
Training Booklet" for the recognition of
the
competences
acquired through
non-formal education, the public institutions are struggling to
recognize and certify the competences acquired by young people
with volunteering in a non -formal education. For these reasons,
the Ce.Se.Vo.Ca. considered it appropriate to carry out the
project "YP + CV=E + E (YOUTHPASS plus Curriculum Vitae as
Erasmus Plus Employability)" consisting of a Seminar for the
exchange of best European practices on the acquisition of competences through
voluntary activities of young people, included in the Curriculum vitae and usable in
the labor market, with a confrontation with the local institutions for the recognition
and certification of these competences.
The objectives of the project were:
a) to accompany political reforms at the local and regional level in the youth field
and to support the recognition of non- formal and informal learning;
b) to strengthen the international dimension of youth activities and the role of
youth;
c)
to strengthen cooperation among organizations active in the youth field;
d) to promote the concept of volunteering as a value and opportunities for the
acquisition of competences can also be used in the labor market .
Participants were among 34 youth workers, volunteers and members of the executive
board of youth organizations (and one Local Council) from 15 countries, half from the
European Union and for the other half belonging to neighboring countries.
Page 6
The main activity of the project was a Seminar in San Giovanni
Rotondo, from 24 to 28 November 2014 named "YOUTHPASS
plus Curriculum Vitae as Erasmus Plus Employability" in which
participants exchanged best practices on the competences
acquired through voluntary activities based on non-formal
education, and shared with the local institutions the procedures
for the recognition of these competences and their
development in the curriculum vitae, to facilitate the creation
or job research by young people.
The methodology used for the realization of the project was based on non-formal
education, which includes the planning of activities, the voluntary participation and
especially the involvement and active participation of partner organizations and
participants.
The main impact of the project on the participants was:
- to share good practices for the recognition of voluntary activities
based on non-formal education;
- to learn a new digital tool, the platform for distance learning
(named open software "Moodle ").
Among the results of the project, all the best practices presented
during the seminar were shared with local institutions, and it was the subject of this
publication, that each partner translated into their language and spread through all
media.
The main long-term benefits of this project were:
a) the consolidation of the partnership, with the goal of starting a lasting
collaboration within the program "Erasmus +" to promote the recognition and
validation of volunteer experiences, acquired through non-formal education;
b) the recognition and certification by the local institutions of the competences
acquired through voluntary activities of young people.

Short description of the Project
Young people are the leaders of tomorrow, but their active engagement can start
today. The 2013 Youth in Action for Conflict Transformation and Peacebuilding
programme aims to activate young entrepreneurship for positive social change
through an international training and networking experience. With the globalization
of our contemporary world, young people in Europe and abroad are faced with
complex social and political environments. Too often, these complex environments
become marred by conflict and violence, destroying the foundations of security,
prosperity, and partnership. Navigating these complex environments in ways that
build social cohesion and solidarity while meeting the needs of an ever more diverse
population is the challenge of our time. This challenge requires youth people to acquire
competencies in intercultural communication, conflict analysis and transformation,
Page 14
acquire competency and confidence in social entrepreneurship, including needs
identification, conflict-sensitive project planning and stakeholder management,
human resources development, project evaluation, and communications.

The Partnership Building Activity was created to
form networks of organizations in order to build
together future project with or for people with
disabilities, to stimulate the inclusion/nondiscrimination against people with disabilities and
to promote their participation into youth projects.
What we wanted to do:

stimulating the open dialogue and the cooperation
between the participants,
- to create a cohesion and a synergy between the
Page 19
participants, favorable for creating future
projects,
- to establish links of co-operation, that enable
the participants to organize new and
innovative youth projects with an European
dimension,
- to create a network of partnerships that will
lead to the development of new projects for
people with disabilities,
- attracting, encouraging and involving
disabled people in volunteering and future youth projects.
It was addressed to youth organizations, youth leaders, trainers and youth with
disabilities who want to be actively involved in future projects, who wish to gain
practical knowledge and theory about why it is necessary to know and take into
account when developing projects for people with disabilities, who want to work with
other NGOs so as to create a network of non-profit organizations involved in European
youth program, who write and implement future projects with youth and youth with
disabilities. And all because everyone has the right to participate in projects wherever
they wish and not only where there is accommodation and accessible information, but
where they can fully participate in all the activities.
The project was held in Constanta, Romania between 18 - 25 June 2011 and there were
involved 6 international partners from 6 countries (Austria, Belgium, Germany, Latvia,
Turkey, Romania). Among the local partners there were Constanta city Autonomous

Short description of the Best Practice
The Project “Arının Umudu-Hope of the Bee” is the only Project in Turkey and also in
the world that brings “apiculture” and “disabled people” together. With the help of this
project that is being supported by European Union Central Finance Department and
the Ministry of Family and Social Policies, it is aimed disabled people to take part in
social life actively; to set a good example for their employment; to make community
conscious against negative attitude and discriminatory affairs towards disabled ones in
both social and economical life and it is also aimed to contribute to the dialogues
among Non-govermental Organisations. By this project, 30 disabled people who have
the quality enough to get employed will each be economically independent; it is also
provided disabled people to get proficient in the scope of bee-keeping and products.
Besides, “apiculture” will come into question again, it will be an awareness and a
contribution towards nature and also socio-consciousness. During the time the project
goes on, it will be given such courses as Basic Apiculture and Production of BeeProducts, (both theorically and practically), Practical Entrepreneurship. It will be
practiced two-staged questionaire to evaluate the both possitive and negative results
in order to improve the courses given; a social awareness seminar will be presented. As
a good sample of being on the stage both economically and socially, disabled people
are planned to be on social media and networks actively. For the Non-govermental
Organisations and local administrations in particular districts of Istanbul where the
project is actually practised, a workshop about “Increasing the employment of disabled
people” will be organized and with the help of this workshop, a contribution to
dialogues and communication among the
organisations will be supplied.
