Employment is not only a key factor to acquire the necessary resources to live, but it is also a basic mechanism for young people socialization and, in the case of young people with learning difficulties (high dropout rate in studying) or even those with special needs, for inclusion.
European young people today are facing greater difficulty in finding their first job, the alarming situation of youth unemployment (22.8% on average in Europe) and its wide disparity among Member States (there is a gap of more than 50 percentage points between Germany with 7.8% and Greece with 56.8%) has led the European Commission to approve the Youth Guarantee Recommendation on April 22nd, 2013.
Among all lines of work being undertaken to overcome this situation, we believe that music is a little used road. In Valencia, there are 529 music associations (covering 97% of the territory) with more than 138,753 members and 39,015 registered musicians. This structure generates wealth and its production amounted to 60,236,360 Euros in 2013, creating a total of more than 2,500 full time jobs according to the Federación de Sociedades Musicales of the Valencian Community.
That is the reason why we think we should go one step further and help promote youth employability, especially focusing on those suffering the mentioned barriers, building on the results achieved so far in the youth mobility programs conducted in the past.
The project “The Music is the Key: Improving Youth Employability” will create a strategic network between five music entities throughout Europe (Spain, Italy, Portugal, Germany and Belgium) and a large number of collaborating entities (many of them working in the disability field) in order to generate high quality materials adapted to promote youth employability through music, especially young people with greater difficulty in accessing the labor market. All this will be achieved through a non-formal and participatory approach of self-learning.
This teamwork will be carried out over a span of 18 months through three transnational meetings in Italy, Portugal and Spain where the team will exchange experiences and aim at getting relevant results. These meetings will coordinate the work of their own music associations and young European musicians (members and non-members) as well as other partners collaborating in the field of disability.
This employability guide is one of the results of this project, and is composed of a description of each entity, a calendar of events in each country where the musicians can go to work, an itinerary of musical studies in each country and a case study on people with special needs.
