DISSEMINATION

  Participants will be asked to write at the end of every day, what they learnt, what

they liked, what they did not like, what they would like to be different: as a result a

quality charter will be produced.

  All these reports of the participants and the conclusions from the evaluation of the

activities, will be used in order to write a final report of the project, including its

evaluation, best practices and suggestions.

  In addition, a video will be produced presenting best practices and methods of theSeminar. This material will be disseminated throughout the network of the partners

(using ICT tools), at local and European level, with the objective to reach anyone

interested, from young people to youth organizations.
