The journey of the AmuNEET<\/a><\/strong> project comes to an end after 18 intense months. The Project, coordinated by CESIE ETS, allowed 24 young NEET sicilian\u0259 (3 groups of 8 people) to take part in a social empowerment experience of around 1,000 people within the ALMA programme, including a preparation phase with individual coaching and counselling sessions from April to June 2024, a work mobility experience in Portugal, Spain or Greece from June to December 2024, a follow-up phase from January to March 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The follow-up phase saw the Project participants engaged in a number of activities aimed at capitalising on the personal and professional learning experience abroad, such as: experience evaluation sessions, financial and business start-up training, an English course aimed at taking a final exam to receive a certificate, individual and group work guidance sessions, and interviews with selected companies in the fields of interest of each participant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the end of the activities, on 27 March 2025, the final event of the project named \"Youth and Their Future: Training and Job Opportunities Across Sicily and Europe\"<\/em><\/strong> was held in Palermo, Italy. The event gathered approximately 150 participants, including unemployed youth, NEETs, and representatives from both private and public institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event began with a welcoming and registration session, followed by a conference which featured presentations on various topics about the situation of NEETs in Sicily, the ALMA Programme, job opportunities within the EU through the EURES network, and the European Social Fund Plus (ESF+) opportunities available in Sicily.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the conference, an \"Opportunities Fair<\/strong>\" for youth people and companies was organed, with the participation of different local and regional organizations providing information on training and employment opportunities for young people. Participating organizations were; Centro per l\u2019impiego di Palermo e Monreale<\/a>, EUROMADONIE<\/a>, SEND Sicilia<\/a>, Euroform<\/a>, EURES Sicilia<\/a>, Europe Direct Palermo<\/a>, Sicindustria<\/a>, Centro Orientamento e Tutorato (COT) UNIPA<\/a>, CESIE ETS<\/a>, Centro per lo Sviluppo Creativo Danilo Dolci \u2013 ETS<\/a>, LAND Impresa Sociale<\/a>, Associazione I.D.E.A.<\/a> and FINYOUTH<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
