            This project by the name "Heuristic Game" is financially supported by the European Commission’s Youth in Action Programme.

About Youth in Action Programme

            Youth in Action (2007-2013) is the programme the European Union has set up for young people. It aims to inspire a sense of active European citizenship, solidarity and tolerance among young Europeans and to involve them in shaping the Union's future.

            It promotes mobility within and beyond the EU's border, non-formal learning and intercultural dialogue, and encourages the inclusion of all young people regardless of their educational, social and cultural backgrounds. It also helps people working in the youth sector develop skills and establish contacts necessary to enhance their work.

            The Youth in Action programme is supported by funds from the Joint International Unit, Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS)/Department for Education, and the European Commission (DG Education and Culture)

 

 

The European Commission, the European Parliament and the Member States of the European Union have agreed to establish the Youth in Action Programme, which puts into effect the legal framework to support non-formal learning activities for young people. It will run from 2007 to the end of 2013.
