Summary

Objectives
The project improved the working conditions and employment rights of young civil servants aged 18–30. It identified challenges faced in professional life, gathered expectations, and developed policy-oriented solutions. Goals included strengthening individual and professional skills, increasing productivity and workplace harmony, reinforcing public-sector belonging, protecting trade-union rights, reducing mobbing, and expanding promotion opportunities. Seven regional workshops, one national summit, and a survey with 1,700 young civil servants supported the creation of a national policy proposal.

Implementation
A volunteer-based project team coordinated activities through Genç Memur-Sen networks. Seven regional workshops and a national summit were organised for young and prospective civil servants, together with teachers, academics, and other public employees. Each workshop hosted 20–25 participants; the summit hosted 65. Participants were selected through online forms, Eurodesk, social media, SMS pools, and partner networks. Pre- and post-tests, feedback sessions, and continuous monitoring guided adjustments. Dissemination used social media, press channels, and institutional outreach.

Results
The project created a structured dialogue between young civil servants and decision makers. Participants expressed workplace challenges directly, strengthening their negotiation and problem-solving skills. Non-formal methods increased learning outcomes and motivation for rights advocacy. Group work and peer interaction supported personal and social development. Decision makers and experts engaged with the youth perspective, contributing to a policy environment more responsive to young civil servants’ needs. The project produced lasting impact through its policy proposals and strengthened professional participation culture.
