Learning by leaving

Learning by leaving – a joint conference for European mobility networks was arranged in Uppsala on the 19-20 of November 2009, in association with the Swedish EU presidency.
The conference was aimed at networking and cooperation between representatives of the Europass, Euroguidance, Eurodesk and EURES networks. The focus of the conference was mobility in Europe today and how the mobility networks can cooperate in order to reach better results within three main themes:
- Mobility for young people with fewer opportunities
- How to reach young audiences
- Making use of international experiences
An important objective, connected to these themes, was also to discuss the questions raised in the EU Green paper on mobility in order to feed into the consultation process launched by the European Commission.
The Conference was arranged in cooperation between The International Programme Office for Education and Training (host of Europass and Euroguidance), The Swedish National Board for Youth Affairs (host of Eurodesk) and The Swedish Public Employment Service (host of EURES).
There were about 160 participants from 32 countries in Europe. Below you can find information on the presentations and workshop results as well as results from the evaluation of the conference. More material from the conference will be added on this website in the coming days.
