development of positive values for participants

persönliche Entwicklung / Erwerb von sozialen und personalen Kompetenzen

In general, participating in an international youth project does have a positive influence on young people’s values. When they were asked, more than half of respondents indicated that respect of other cultures, tolerance, solidarity, equality, self-fulfilment, etc. have become more important for them as a result of participating in the project. It is seen that inclusion projects generate significantly more positive effects than non-inclusion projects. Inclusion projects boost young people’s respect for human life (+14,9%) more than non-inclusion projects do, but also raise the importance of human rights (+13,8%), equality (+10%), solidarity (+9,4%), individual freedom (+9%), peace (+8,2%), tolerance (+7,7%), religion (+6,4%), respect of other cultures (+6,4%) and rule of law (+4,2%) – each time compared to non-inclusion projects.

Evaluierung der Aktivität

This article is based on an inclusion analysis of the data provided by the RAY Network (Research-based Analysis of Youth in Action) with partners in 20 European countries (status 2014). The respective research instruments were developed by the University of Innsbruck, Austria, in cooperation with the RAY partners. The data of the RAY research project indicates that the Youth in Action programme (now Erasmus+ Youth) is a good tool to reach its ‘equity and inclusion’ aims. The effects of ‘thematic inclusion projects’ on participants were contrasted with the effects generated by ‘non-inclusion projects’.
The following became more important… … respect for human life; human rights; equality; solidarity; individual freedom; peace; tolerance; religion: respect cultures; rule of law; democracy (NS); self-fulfilment (NS).
