Handbook on quality in learning mobility, 2nd edition
Handbook on quality in learning mobility (2nd edition)
The importance and relevance of learning mobility in the youth field – the mobility of young people across regions and countries for a specific period of time, consciously organised for educational purposes – have been reinforced through the increasing number of projects and activities in Europe over the years. Good quality learning mobility can bring about positive outcomes for individuals, organisations and communities. For this reason, maintaining the focus on quality is of the utmost importance.
This handbook, first published in 2019, is the result of the work and discussions of experts, young people, youth workers, researchers, policy makers and donors. It is intended to support the organisers of learning mobility projects in the youth field at all stages of a project, from design to evaluation, and aims at providing immediate, clear and useful answers to questions on how to organise learning mobility projects with and for young people.
This second edition of the handbook has been prepared as a result of the changing context of youth learning mobility during the Covid-19 pandemic, including “virtual mobility”, and also takes into account other considerations such as environmental sustainability, mental health and the well-being of participants in youth mobility projects, and the values and attitudes reinforced by learning mobility.
