Selection
Due to the nature of the training, the numbers of participants will be limited. The participants will be selected on the principle of: First come first served.
Our Commitment
Pay it Forward Mechanism
All YTC sessions will be free of charge for all the selected participants.
We are really happy to provide you with capacity building sessions that will improve your knowledge and skills on different topics. However, through the YTC sessions, we would like to start a pay forward mechanism which is entirely on voluntary bases.
What is the pay forward mechanism? It is a commitment from our side to provide you with quality training sessions, and from the side of the participants to help and support their local cooperatives through different methods. How can you support your local cooperatives and be part of the pay forward mechanism?
- Make a financial donation to a local cooperative
- Become a volunteer to help a cooperative and/or a cooperative project of your interest
- Become a mentor and offer your skills and knowledge to co-operators that may need it
- Any other way that you would like to support
We would really like to give visibility to those actions. Share with us what you did for you local cooperative by filling the form bellow (through for instance videos, pictures, and/or a short text) and we will share it on social media to spread the dynamic and inspire others!
