Population on the region Kurzeme is about 297.000.Most of young people after finishing secondary education goes to the capital of Latvia to study or goes abroad and seldom comes back to the region as employees or employers.
We want to use the results of this project to support our school graduates to find a job according to market demands in the region where they live and thus avoid their massive migration to other areas and countries of the EU.In this respect our school teachers become more responsive and improve collaboration with the economic environment so they can fully appreciate the skills, attitudes and personality traits of students who work. All these will be useful to guide students effectively later using means and methods from project to help young graduates to local labor market integration.
Supporting young people in career choices according to their interests and abilities, and offering high quality professional education in emerging sectors of the economy, the establishment of cooperation with institutions of higher education in the region, it would be possible to involve young people in the region's economic activities.
We have motivated and creative teachers in our team who can share the experience and intercultural activities in the best way to exchange good practice between different countries from the project.
