Youth Employment Consultation - Let Youth Point Us in the Right Direction

As decisions are taken on how to address Youth Employment in Ireland and Europe, young people want to be part of the solution not the problem. The National Youth Council of Ireland in partnership with the Youth Affairs Unit of the Office of the Minister for Children and Young People are hosting a consultation with young people on Youth Employment and Social Inclusion in preparation for the European Conference on the issue.

Where: The Irish Aid Centre O’Connell Street, Dublin.

When: Saturday 27th March 2010. 10.30-3.30

Who: Young people and Youth Workers over 18yrs. We especially want to hear the experience of young people finding it difficult to access employment.

Cost: Free. Travel expenses (public transport only) will be reimbursed and lunch will be provided.

Application Process: Booking Required. Please fill out attached application form before Friday 19th March.

The results of this event will become part of the dialogue between young people and policy makers at a National and European level. Participants from this consultation will represent Ireland at the EU Presidency Youth Conference in Spain on Youth Employment.
