When we begin our life journey, we possess incredible creative potential. However, formal educational practices often suppress our creativity by limiting our thinking to linear and convergent ways. Research has shown that our inner creative geniuses are significantly reduced as we go through formal schooling, and by the age of 25, only 3% of individuals think in original and out-of-the-box ways. This limitation negatively impacts Europeans, as creativity has become one of the most critical job skills for the 21st century. In the 2016 World Economic Forum report, creativity was ranked as the #10 job skill required for the future. However, in the more recent research conducted on job skills needed in 2020, the importance of creativity skyrocketed from #10 to #3. This trend continues today, especially after the pandemic time. As youth workers from eight different countries, we have experienced the frustration of running out of resources and facing creative burnout. At the same time, we have struggled to come up with new and effective activities, leading to apathy, uncomfortable situations, stress, and pressure to deliver exciting and meaningful methods. When the pandemic hit, the situation became more challenging, and the expectation to provide supportive, creative, and engaging work methods for youth while addressing their needs increased. The pandemic has further strengthened and reaffirmed our belief in the significance of creativity for youth workers. It is an essential tool that can help them to find innovative ways to market their programs to young people, share their results, and attract new members to their initiatives. Developing creativity is a skill that can be honed with frequent practice. The process of creating something compels the mind to think more creatively, and we can cultivate creativity by pushing ourselves to create something new every day. Photography is a medium that allows individuals to see things in a new light, often in ways that others would not typically see. It provides the opportunity to explore new perspectives and create unique angles, much like creative thinking involves developing new and innovative ideas that were never imagined before. Photography is the place where creativity flourishes. Looking at a situation differently than usual sparks creativity and allows for new and exciting ideas to emerge. We believe photography provides the perfect platform and lens to examine the topic of creativity in youth work. The main aim of this TC was to simultaneously develop the creativity and photography competencies of European youth workers from Estonia, Spain, Poland, Greece, Turkey, Portugal, Romania, and Germany. After designing the problem tree, the partners formulated the objectives of the project, to reach the main goal: 1. The participants will increase their knowledge of what creativity is, who is creative (everyone, not just artists), and how to unleash their creative potential as youth workers. 2. The participants will develop their skills to unleash and unblock their creative potential as well as support their youth to do the same. These skills are to utilize more creative methods and approaches in youth work, in addition to increasing the employability prospects of the youth they work with. 3. The participants will develop their knowledge about photography and photo literacy. They’ll learn about basic tools to develop their photographs for youth work promotion and incorporate them into creative non-formal education activities with youth. 4. The participants will hone their practical skills in photography (pre-production, production, and post-production) as well as skills in promoting and disseminating youth work through photography. By the end of the project, participants will create their promotional materials (using photography and text) for their youth work. 5. The participants will increase their awareness and attitudes on the importance of creativity and photography for youth work. They overcome their fears in both fields and by the end of the project, they feel more confident with their creative contributions. This aim was achieved by equipping participants with the tools and methods needed to develop knowledge, skills, and attitudes in the field of creativity and photography, as well as tools and methods that can be used to work with young people. After the training course, they are more likely to implement and integrate creativity and photography into their youth work and daily life. Furthermore, they can empower young people to do the same.
