NEET-BEST
Equipping NEET Youth for the 4th Industrial Revolution: Building Essential Skills in a Transforming Workplace


NEET-BEST is a project designed to strengthen the employability of young people who are not in education, employment or training (NEET).

The project aims to increase the quality, innovation and recognition of youth work through inclusiveness and diversity in all areas of education, training, youth and sports.



The motivation for our project stems from the pressing need to address the challenges faced by NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) youth in today's rapidly evolving labor market. NEET youth often encounter significant barriers to accessing education, training, and employment opportunities, which can perpetuate cycles of unemployment, social exclusion, and economic disadvantage.
