EYES - Empowering Youth for Equal Success
Empowering Youth for Equal Success (EYES) is a European project led by five partner organizations: YES (Bulgaria), KOM 018 (Serbia), Beyond Borders (Italy), COSI (Romania), and GO Alive (Greece).
Funded by the European Union, the project runs for 24 months, from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2027, and aims to improve youth employability especially for NEETs, young women, minorities, and youth from rural areas.
In response to persistent youth unemployment across Europe, EYES offers a collaborative and transnational
approach to empower young people, strengthen youth work, influence employment policies, and build sustainable local support structures.
