    CODET (Community development through English teaching) project aimed at creating a sustainable network of 4 European and 2 Asian and 2 Latin American EVS organisations having the capacity to host/send youth with fewer opportunities for EVS, improving the quality of EVS projects and capacity-building of staff of these organisations. It connected 8 EVS partners (KERIC, Slovakia, ICYE, Honduras, Centro Cultural Germina , Mexico, CSDS, Vietnam, KYSD, Cambodia, Vitatiim, Estonia, United Vision, the Czech Republic, VSI, Ireland) and 2 formal institutions (The University of Latvia and Kimmage DSC, Ireland) During the project, 12 European volunteers did their EVS in Honduras, Mexico, Cambodia and Vietnam for 3 months - teaching English using non-formal education methods to people in the local communities and doing a SCD (sustainable community development) project on topics such as entrepreneurship, WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene) or eco-tourism. Through EVS, they gained new personal and professional skills, increased their employability and became more open and tolerant to other cultures. At the same time, the activities of the volunteers supported a sustainable development of the local communities and empoweverment of its people. 8 EVS staff members or people connected with organisations from Honduras, Cambodia and Vietnam attended a mobility visit in Europe to gain new competencies, new intercultural and professional experience. The mutual exchange between European and OPC partners helped improve the quality of EVS projects and help to create a strong EVS network among the partners. 2 EVS organisations were new-comers to EVS, so a supervision visit was organised one month of the arrival of the volunteers to monitor and support the host organisations as well as the volunteers. The CODET ELT (English language teaching) module was created and tested as support for volunteers with no previous teaching experience to deliver English lessons using non-formal education methods to people in the local communities in Cambodia, Mexico, Honduras and Vietnam. The CODET SCD (Sustainable Community Development) toolbox was created and tested to provide simple activities for volunteers to help the sustainable development of local communities in Asia and Latin America. The following activities took place during the project: - a kick-off meeting(12 project coordinators and trainers) - 12 EVS projects - 8 mobilities of youth workers (8 EVS staff members or people connected with organisations from OPC countries) - 2 EVS supervisions in new partner organisations (2 experts for each visit) - evaluation meeting (13 project coordinators and trainers) The methods of work followed the principles of non-formal education.

    The project QuNeCo – which stands for QUALITY NETWORK COOPERATION – aimed at creating a strong network among 10 organisations from Europe, Asia and Latin America, wishing to host/send youth with fewer opportunities for EVS. Furthermore, the project helped youth workers gain new competencies, improve the quality of youth work and enable 22 young people with fewer opportunities to do EVS in another continent. The result of the project is a stable and sustainable network of 10 organisations, 22 EVS projects for youth with fewer opportunities abroad, follow-up EVS projects, an OPC preparation toolkit, an update of an EVS supervision training module and an improved quality of youth work.No planned result is methodology how to educate kids between 3 - 6 years old about water and hygiene.The primary target group were young people aged 18 to 30, the priority had youngsters with fewer opportunities. Through EVS, they gained new personal and professional skills, increased their employability and became more open and tolerant to other cultures. The secondary target group of the project was project coordinators and EVS staff in each partner organisation which were actively involved in work with these young people. The youth workers gained new intercultural and professional experience during this project. The local community in all partner organisations also greatly benefits from the project – especially in terms of intercultural learning and tolerance. These activities took place during the project: - a kick-off meeting(10 project coordinators + experts) - EVS (22 young people) - 3 EVS supervisions in new partner organisations (KERIC coordinator + European coordinator) - Youthpass training (12 participants) Through EVS, this project helped to solve the issues connected with the community where the young people with fewer opportunities come from. By motivating the young people to change their lives, gradual steps were taken to the change of their community as such. We expect that the employability of young people opportunities on the labour market will be increased. Other themes that will be particularly addressed by the project were:  cultural diversity  prejudice, racism, xenophobia, current anti-Islamic views in Europe participation of young people in public life  the inclusion of young people with fewer opportunities  cross-sector cooperation  European, Asian and Latin American awareness  Underdevelopment of rural areasThe methods of work follow the principles of non-formal education.
