Think Tank
Think Tank is a necessarry tool and output of CYF to keep students in the lead in their contact with policy and decision makers and to challenge government with new insight. CYF students and their peers that develop a higher sense of involvement and impact in their region, take on the role of advisors and inspirators for local and regional policy and decision makers.
Thinks Tank of CYF project is an innovative step for all project partners. As the preparational period has proven, such platforms and points do not exist.
The Think Tank is a network, a regional platform as well as an advisory board to organize this involvement. It is based on prior actions, explorations en research of students within their region and on a European level, which leads to a new insight and valuable ideas.
CYF Think Tank is innovative by connecting students of different backgrounds, educational levels and ages to regional policy-and decision makers for impact creation and innovation. In each partner country a series of activities, events and a network is developed that leads to creating this Think Tank. Expected examples of such activities are:
- exploring social challenges from two point of view: students and government
- round table talk
- the role of social entrepreneurship in the region and in Europe: discussion sessions;
- the role of young people in creating impact, how to enable young people in impact creation and involvement?
- presentation and discussion

Setting up a measurment tool contributes to the imbedding of CYF tools in education and goverment, along with other stakeholders’action. On the other hand, the measurment tool stands on itself as well, as a possible tool in measuring the learning outcomes and effects of a learing experience related to:
- transnational as well as regional/ blended learning;
- multisectoral learning for VET and HEI students as community;
- experiencing social enterprise with impact; learning to steer change and impacting desicion makers;
- growing in the role of rolemodels and therefore making the reach of projects even larger.
development of the tool is a form of measurement of learning outcomes for education. It’s a tool that can be broadly used by educational partners, during and after CYF project period.
