NGO Noored Maailma

NGO Noored Maailma is a non-profit organization based in Tartu, Estonia. Since 2016 we have been actively involved in Erasmus+ programme working as a coordinating organisation and a link between the youth and local institutions. Our mission is to create valuable opportunities for the benefit of young people and enable them to accomplish themselves through international youth mobility projects. For that reason, we have continuously extended our network of reliable partner organisations on local and international level and will continue to do so to widen the possibilities for future projects. Throughout the years we have been able to have an increasing positive impact on young people and on the local community in terms of the number of people engaged as well the scale and quality of the projects. We are fortunate to be collaborating with notable Tartu AHHAA Science Centre an interactive centre that aims to introduce science to everyone and encourages learning through the joy of discovery which NGO Noored Maailma can also strongly relate to. Working together on incorporating Erasmus+ programme in it’s establishment many different opportunities have been created for young people to take part in science communication. Young people are able to apply themselves in vibrant working environment carrying out science based activities using „hands-on“ approach- learning by doing. New skills and competences are being built up through practical experiences relevant in today’s labour market such as communicating in foreign languages, leadership skills and creativity. Significant to our organization are also topics like education in terms of lifelong learning, youth employability as well environmental awareness.
