Objectives

With implementation of the project "Visual Facility in Youth Work" we want to develop the skills of the participants in visual facilitation for educational purposes, learning to use and apply it in working with young people to meet the need of partner organizations to involve in the planned activities more young people, especially those from disadvantaged socio-cultural contexts with communication problems and the need to record and document the activities carried out more easily and effectively and increase the effectiveness of the results of dissemination and exploitation of the results of Erasmus + projects . The project also satisfies the need expressed by the participants to find new forms of communication to be used in their work as youth workers and / or facilitators to overcome the obstacles caused by linguistic barriers, especially if done in multiethnic and heterogeneous groups. and for personal, social, cultural and geographical background. The general objective of the project is the development of visual literacy through the use of visual facilitation in the work of youth workers at local and international contexts in the context of Erasmus + projects. Specific objectives are: - understand how visual literacy can support better communication and overcome language barriers in group work; - understand how graphics can increase the effectiveness of dissemination and exploitation of results in Erasmus + projects. - overcome the barriers to creativity and demonstrate that you do not need to be an artist to use visual facilitation in youth work. The expected learning outcomes are the improvement of communication skills through visual literacy and a greater understanding on how to use it in the work with young people, greater effectiveness in dissemination activities and exploitation of results in Erasmus + projects.
