The North-South Centre Training Course for Global Youth Work is a week long training course for a maximum of 30 representatives of youth organisations from the different continents and regions of the world. The course is organised under the framework of the joint Management Agreement between the European Commission - EuropeAid Co-operation Office and the North-South Centre of the Council of Europe and will be implemented in co-operation with the Members of International Co-ordination Meeting of Youth Organisations (ICMYO).

Over the course of seven days the participants will be discussing the complexity of the effects of globalisation on young people's lives, issues and controversies of global interdependence, the different views existing on these issues in different parts of the world and will explore how global interdependence relates to young people and the work of youth organisations. On the basis of this analysis the participants will be trained in the different skills and knowledge areas relevant to successfully conduct global co-operation, exchange and awareness raising programmes and concrete actions for the furtherance of a common global agenda.

The role and capacity of youth and their organisations to influence the global agenda constructively, as well as of global youth work as a response to the pervasive impact of globalisation, will be at the heart of the discussion and analysis conducted at the course.
