From 27th of September to 5th of October, 2021, three youth workers from Asociación PROJUVEN have attended the training course “Understanding mindfulness and embodiment as tools in youth work” in Kobuleti, Georgia. The project gathered together 28 participants from Armenia, Germany, Georgia, Hungary, Italy, Moldova, Spain and Ukraine.
The training course is part of the project “Unlock headspace – Education for youth wellbeing, self-care and empowerment” that intends to create innovation and improve the capacities of youth organizations and youth workers to foster youth participation. While working on youth empowerment and value-based youth-led activism in local communities, it got obvious for all project partners that it is essential for young people to learn skills for creating community, a sense of belonging, while at the same time they need to have tools at hand ensuring that they feel self-confident, well and happy with their identity and role in society.
Consequently, the project aims to strengthen the capacities of (youth) organisations in supporting young people`s health and personal well-being and contribute to young people`s empowerment as active citizens.
If you are interested to attend the second training course of this project which will be held in Hungary in March, 2022, don´t hesitate to contact us.
