The research project, which will end by the end of 2009, deeply involves the interested categories (local social services, social workers, young people) and has been thought of as a place of exchange and comparison completely dedicated to them.

The meeting, which will last for three days, will be attended by groups of young people coming from the five European countries, object of the research, as well as from other Eastern Europe countries, and will be dedicated to working together and creating a virtuous circuit of mutual exchange and knowledge.

The groups of young people will present the results of a monitoring process (a kind of study-action) carried out by themselves in their own country of origin, about the services available for them there, and creating a map of the existing offices and resources for a positive social inclusion after residential care. The purpose is to help them, in the following days, to structure information material which they could distribute among their peers. This material may also include a series of useful recommendations to face this fundamental time of discharge; recommendations which will be presented in front of local as well as European authorities.

The event will also be an opportunity to present insertion programmes specifically designed in cooperation with the labour market and companies in terms of the widely spread social responsibility of enterprises and aimed at creating solutions of actual employment inclusion.
