Day 2: Diving deep below the surface of youth work

The second day of the training course has arrived together with the new snow. This was one more reason, the participants to get even more inspired and start the morning session with lots of enthusiasm. It was the time to be creative in presenting the organisations where the participants are coming from. Many new opportunities came out from this session and already new potential cooperation has been discussed among the different organisations. Eager to learn more about each other, all of them dived into the next session of exploring the needs and challenges that they are facing during their every-day work as youth workers.

Day 3: New discoveries of youth worker competences

The Georgian participants Ekuna and Tamo from the youth association DRONI are sharing their impression about the day 3 of the training course.

The group has a ig potential, slowly they are opening up and I feel that the ...

Day 4 - Rumbi's story

Already somewhere in the middle of the training course we are interested to hear the story of Rumbi who comes from the  organisation African Youth Arise (AYA) from the United Kingdom. With her we had small interview, asking her about the learning points from the day 4 of YOUTHIFICATION training. The methodology used during this day was focusing more on creative expression and building 3D structures which should visualize better the youth structures the participants are working in. Questions like: where are the young people in your community? How much do they participate in the decision making processes? How to increase their participation? Read here below what Rumbi said to us: "At the morning session I was thinking more thoroughly about our space that we use for our activities, is it appropriate and suitable for the young people we are working with. I think probably is not, it doesn’t have enough facilities to enable us to work with young people on another level and to enc...
