Virtual Engagement in Peru
Young People Get Connected Via YouthLinks
Since the programme was launched in 2018, the program is successfully used to connect young people and volunteers virtually.
In Peru, young people have been trained through One-to-One online mentoring by corporate volunteers. The tandems were working on five different sessions, covering the following content: a training for presentation skills, the elaboration of a SWOT-analysis, a CV training-session, preparation for job interviews, an introduction into "personal branding", the development of teamwork skills and a communication-training. Each session lasted an approximate of one hour.
Before the mentorship started, the activity-coordinator conducted a workshop, in which the mentor and the mentee were briefed on the content of the project as well as on administrative subjects like the use of the platform and how to register on it.
