 My Town Your Town [MTYT] is a training project that will raise youth employability, skills and Inclusion through an intergenerational tourism development. The key feature of the project is for youth, aged 18 to 30 and from a wide range of backgrounds. Youth will work with mentors to produce a new narrative interpretation of an existing or new cultural tourism destination in their local area. The Model will better represent the multi-cultural facets and European values of the host community to better appeal to 21st century visitors.The impetus has come from the experiences of the partners working together on the Erasmus' s PLAN project 201702-CY02-KA205-001033 and from the opportunities and issues identified in our local communities around unemployment, social inclusion and cohesion, and tourism and culture.
 
The specific objectives of the project are to:
  • exploit the potential in tourism sector for delivering a wide range of positive outcomes and benefits for youth
  • increase youth's skills, unearthing talents, provide new opportunities and connections so they feel part of their community
  • develop a simple, innovative, replicable smart designed Model to raise youth employability and bring new life to tourism
  • directly address a top challenge in tourism, the need to constantly innovate and develop new attractive products in a sustainable manner, for local communities and the environment. Europeans need a strong tourism sector for economic reasons, but also to better know each other and better see what unites them.
