Youth skills and education, a key to build sustainable and inclusive societies

Today’s youth face multiple transitions and challenges— between education and work, digital and physical realities, environmental and societal shifts. With young people from disadvantaged backgrounds and marginalised communities at greatest risk of being left behind, disparities in access to skills education and decent work are growing. Bridging the gap requires innovative, inclusive, and cross-sectoral approaches

Education, skills development and lifelong learning are central to our ability to navigate the rapidly changing world. It is our – professionals, policymakers and educators – job to ensure that young people have the needed competencies to thrive in the digital and green transitions. 

At Radar Europe, we see education and skills development as a pathway to support generations of youth that will leave a mark for a better future. Our work is grounded in an all-encompassing understanding of youth development—one that fosters critical thinking, social responsibility, environmental values and adaptability. 

We build inclusive, learner-centred environments where all youth can grow, contribute, and lead. Radar Europe supports institutions, educators and community actors in reimagining education and skills-building through: 

  • Training development and programme design

  • Youth engagement and co-creation: we involve young people directly in designing and implementing learning pathways that reflect their realities and aspirations. 

  • Capacity building for educators and stakeholders: we develop training and toolkits on participatory methods, inclusive pedagogy, and the integration of digital and green skills. 

  • Research: we carry out research on current trends and evolving needs, ensuring that they reflect the opinions and experiences of young persons and labour market demands. 

Radar Europe bridges the gaps between education and empowerment. By investing in young people’s skills, we support them growing up shaping a more just and sustainable Europe.
