In each group there were 1 group leader, at least 2 participants with educational problems or socially and economically disadvantaged, at least 3 participants with some experience in team work and willingness  to support the other  members of the team.

The group leaders will be at least 18 years old.<br \/>\nAfter the selection of the participants the advance planning visit was organized  in Latvia to discuss with the group leaders and the participants the details of the youth exchange so that they can prepare the participants.

As a result of this adaptation the idea of long cooperation among the organizations did improve.<br \/>\nDuring the project the youngsters did understand better the cultural differences and similarities among them and their main conclusion was that nowadays the cultural differences are not barriers for a good collaborative work to be done together.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gen\u00e7lik hareketlili\u011fi \u00b7 Domats Darits (Letonya) koordinat\u00f6rl\u00fc\u011f\u00fcnde; GEZ\u0130DER ortak kurum olarak yer ald\u0131.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"give_campaign_id":0,"gz_code":"2015-3-LV02-KA105-000919","gz_role":"partner","gz_status":"completed","gz_action":"Gen\u00e7lik hareketlili\u011fi","gz_key_action":"KA1 KA105","gz_call_year":2015,"gz_start":"2016-02-01","gz_end":"2017-01-31","gz_coordinator":"Domats Darits (Letonya)","gz_countries":"Letonya, T\u00fcrkiye, Malta, \u0130talya, Portekiz","gz_topics":"International cooperation, international relations, development cooperation, Labour market issues incl. career guidance \/ youth unemployment, Entrepreneurial learning - entrepreneurship education","gz_platform_url":"https:\/\/erasmus-plus.ec.europa.eu\/projects\/search\/details\/2015-3-LV02-KA105-000919","gz_good_practice":false,"gz_participants":0,"gz_photo_team":"Uluslararas\u0131 \u0130li\u015fkiler","gz_source":"legacy"},"gezider_partner":[305,304,297,327,328],"class_list":["post-3662","gezider_project","type-gezider_project","status-publish","hentry","gezider_partner-associacao-interculutral-para-todos","gezider_partner-associazione-diagonalmed-south-mediterranean-association","gezider_partner-domats-darits","gezider_partner-malta-unesco-youth-association","gezider_partner-mine-vaganti-ngo"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gezider.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/gezider_project\/3662","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gezider.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/gezider_project"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gezider.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/gezider_project"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gezider.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3662"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"gezider_partner","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gezider.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/gezider_partner?post=3662"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
