White paper on youth policy
It has been announced, that the EU commission is going to elaborate a white paper on youth policy. In the process of consulting a lot of civil society organizations, also the ACC has been asked to submit proposals. Out of 6 possible themes, we have chosen to deliver proposals on the issues of "non-formal education" and "participation". You can find our submissions at the website. Of course, we are proposing a system of community colleges as a model for common European education: On participation: http://www.acc.eu.org/Civil%20society%20consultation_participation.htm On Education: http://www.acc.eu.org/Civil%20society%20consultation_education.htm
