Evaluation event of the Youth Employment Action project

Rural Youth Europe evaluated the Youth Employment Action (YEA) project in Jäneda, Estonia from 5-10 March 2012. The event was named "Europe under construction: what is the future of youth employment?" and it evaluated our youth employment activities organised between 2010-2012. In addition, we also planned future youth employment projects on the local, national, regional and international levels.

Aims of the YEA evaluation event:

• To evaluate the outcomes of the Youth Employment Action project in 2010-12
