Youth Wiki is financed by the European Commission and served as the main executor by our Ministry. The implementation unit for this project is the General Directorate of International Organizations and Foreign Relations.

Youth Wiki is an online platform that provides information about youth policies in European countries. Its main aim is to support evidence-based European cooperation in the youth field. Information about each country is provided by National Representatives designated by the governments of the participating countries and is updated annually. The overall goal is to assist European Commission and Member States in their decision-making processes by providing information about reforms and initiatives. The platform facilitates information exchange and innovative approaches and conducts peer learning activities. A total of 33 countries, including all EU member states and our country, participate in the Youth Wiki Platform.

Our project consists of two phases. The first phase, from 2022 to 2024, involved promoting Youth Wiki platform and updating our existing national definitions by gathering feedback and suggestions from relevant public institutions, organizations and civil society groups. On October 20, 2023, we organized an “Information Meeting and Workshop” on the themes of “Education and Training” and “Employment and Entrepreneurship” and on March 8, 2024, we held another workshop focused on “Health and Wellbeing.” The activities of the 2022-2024 Youth Wiki Project were completed by March 31, 2024 and the final report was submitted to the European Commission.

The grant agreement for the second phase of our project, covering the 2024-2026 period was signed on March 20, 2024. The activities for this phase are currently ongoing and workshops will be organized as part of the new period. Additionally, the texts on Youth Wiki platform will be updated annually and uploaded to the system.
