GLOBALAB is a capacity building follow up process coordinated by Future World Center, PEN and Global Citizen Academy, Young People We Care, Tanzania Youth Cultural Exchange Network, and SOUL-XPRESSIONS CO LIMITED seeking functional links and synergies between youth work and the Sustainable Development Agenda. Sub-Saharan African and European partners are working together on improving competences in youth work, its quality and recognition, and to foster new non-formal learning mobility schemes.

Partner Countries:
• From Africa: Uganda, Ghana and Tanzania.
• From Europe: Lithuania, Bulgaria and Spain.

Aim:
The project aims at developing the competences of youth workers in the area of facilitating the Global Learning, free of Eurocentric approach, and focused on the real life examples.
