How do we get more active participation of young people in daily life? The YouLead training in Palermo tried to answer this question:
After having worked intensively in the last months on the two main YouLead project outcomes, the interactive training course and the Toolkit, we met in Palermo with engaged trainers, youth workers and other experts from all over Europe to test the developed material and try some of the activities.
