B. "Youth Insertion in Europe and Mediterranean area: what are we talking about?": 10h30-12h15

This workshop doesn't have the objective of building together definitive definitions of what we interpret as "insertion". We will try to build together "ideal types" of insertion that can be found in action in different contexts. We will try to identify elements of reflexion for analyzing the properties of a dynamic of insertion. In the second part of the workshop we will try to understand if there's moments and spaces that can dinamize the activities of insertion crossing them with multimedia practices. In this way we will look in which manners some social insertion indicator's can be improved by the use of TIC. The global aim is to entitle the participants to built their own perspectives and to intuit the best manners to make use of TIC in their own activities.

In this activity we will talk about concrete examples so we can feed our reflexion with them. If all the present associations work with youth public's they don't all uses the TIC in the same way. We will talk about nearby experiences, so because they have been realized by the organization's structures, or by associations inscribed in our networks, or by one of the association's present in the seminar.
We will talk about past and present experiences that will help us to understand better the richness and diversity in this field of action in the civil society and inside the social movements.
