Summary link to Recognition:
Bridges for Recognition was an important event for the recognition of non-formal learning and youth work in Europe. It brought together a wide range of stakeholders from the fields of youth work, formal and non-formal education and the labour market, as well as representatives from National and European Authorities. This report shares the methods and instruments of recognition and other good practice that came out of the conference. It highlights the need for a common language, a need for better understanding between formal and non-formal education and explores many of the issues related to the recognition of youth work and youth workers.
