development of personal values for participants with fewer opportunities

persönliche Entwicklung / Erwerb von sozialen und personalen Kompetenzen

RAY asked former participants how their appreciation of a number of values or concepts has changed as a result of participating in an international youth project. In general, a mobility experience reinforces the importance young people give to values such as respect, tolerance, solidarity and many others. However, for a majority of participants, a European project only has a limited impact on their adherence to religion or rule of law. It is interesting to see that the difference between YPFO and YPMO is biggest for self-realizing values such as self-fulfilment (+8,2%) and individual freedom (+6,6%).

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. To be sure that only truly underprivileged participants are included in the ‘fewer opportunities’-sample, just having one disadvantage or obstacle was not enough. A respondent had to have at least three exclusion indicators to be in the ‘fewer opportunities’ subgroup (2,823 fit in this group).
The following became more important… … Self-fulfilment; Respect of cultures; Religion; Tolerance; Rule of law; Democracy; Respect for life; Human rights; Solidarity; Equality; Individual freedom; Peace.
