PROACTIVE GROUP GEORGIA

ProActive Group Georgia - is a youth NGO with the mission to support the formation and development of modern, educated, progressive minded proactive society. We aim to create learning opportunities for young people through promoting non-formal education, which helps people to grow on a personal and professional level to develop skills for employability. In order to achieve our organization goals, we implement different local and international activities, having joint events with public/private university/school representatives, also taking active part in Erasmus+ program. Our organization has already 4 years of experience working on international projects and events, but board members of the organization have 7 years of working experience in different topics, such as: non-formal education, youth policies, volunteerism, active citizenship and youth participation, human rights and youth work. Thanks for our international partners, we have already many successful partnership projects within Erasmus+ program and had an opportunity to send youth groups to various international projects, over 300 youth so far in total, and keeping active level in E+ projects, means we have strong network of international partners all over the Europe and beyond. We also have experience of hosting various international projects, co-organizing together with EU institutions, governmental organizations and with other international NGO’s. Our organization already hosted several international projects in Georgia, including Erasmus+ TC, which we hosted in Georgia, in October 2018, in February 2019 and YE in October, 2019. Thanks again to our strongly developed international partnerships, we are partners in 2 ongoing long term capacity building KA2 projects.
