The Rēzekne municipality council invites associations/foundations performing youth work to submit proposals for youth initiatives to reduce early school leaving from 21 February 2022. Project buds * will support youth initiative projects to promote support activities among young people outside formal education.

Objectives of the competition:

Increase the motivation of early school leaving risk group students to continue their education and promote their active participation in day-to-day life.
Involve early school leaving risk groups in youth activities and youth initiative projects outside formal education, ensuring the availability of activities as close as possible to the lives and training of children and young people.

The project competition is implemented by the State Service of Education Quality in cooperation with local governments and national vocational educational institutions within the framework of the European Social Fund project “budpurs”.

In addition to the individual aid already received by pupils within the project buds, youth initiative projects will also be supported to promote support activities among young people outside formal education.

The “buds” projects focus on increasing the motivation of learners to ensure that young people in the risk group continue to study early, as well as the continuation of education and the promotion of the active participation of young people in daily life.
