Theme

Are you a professional working with and for young people or a youth leader eager to enhance youth employability and skills through entrepreneurship, digitalization, and the use of AI? Join us in Antalya, Türkiye for the Youth@Work Digital Competences Forum, taking place between 12-15 December 2025. 

This forum aims to deepen understanding of how digital competences can be developed across sectors and how they contribute to strengthening young people’s position in the labor market through knowledge sharing, networking, and hands-on experience. The focus of the forum will be on digitalization, digital skills, artificial intelligence and employment, which will be discussed in depth by professionals, experts and youth workers from various sectors. 

What is this activity?

This activity is part of a Training and Cooperation Activity (TCA) organized by the Turkish National Agency for Erasmus+ & ESC. TCA is a tool for National Agencies to support the Erasmus+ Program and enhance its impact. As it is part of the Youth@Work Partnership, the event aims to bring together youth workers, youth leaders, youth project managers, youth policy makers, youth researchers and actors from other relevant sectors, all with a shared interest in youth employment and digitalization.

The event will be held in English, therefore applicants are expected to be able to understand and speak the language. Participants with any level of Erasmus+ experience are welcome.

The event is organised under the Youth@Work Strategic Partnership on youth employability and entrepreneurship of Erasmus+ National Agencies and SALTO-YOUTH Resource Centres.
