Young adulthood is a critical period of development, with long-lasting implications for a person’s economic security, health, and well-being. It is especially critical for youth that is facing discrimination based on their identity and background, such as: gender, sexuality, economical and social background, educational background, faith, ethnic, race, nationality, age, conditions of physical or mental health, personality type. The young people belonging to marginalized groups are much less likely than others to experience a successful transition to adulthood, disabling them from participation, independence and self-sufficiency. With our partners we have been working with youth of various marginalized groups for several years. As we exchange our experiences together, we realise how much we ourselves are affected by our own prejudices and how our capacity to support the disadvantaged youth is therefore hindered. The result is service doing no favour but harm. Secondly, the lack of understanding of these groups leads to emotional draining of the youth workers and burn out which is a major issue within the third sector. We realized, it is important to focus on this issue and get tools to change that. It is essential to mention that the pandemic, which found the project in its middle, created new challenges for young people. The poorest households were the ones most severely hit by lockdown indicating that social exclusion and poverty threatened severely vulnerable people. Moreover, “1 in 6 youth aged 18-29 had stopped working since the onset of the crisis” (ILO report) while the pandemic elevated rates of anxiety, loneliness, depression, harmful alcohol and drug use, and suicidal behavior. All these added on what we have previously anticipated as needs of youth and highlight the need to support the youth more strongly through youth work. We also observed that many of us teach or practice yoga however we put yoga and youth work as two separate things and don't combine. There is, first, a belief that youth work has to look a certain way, while yoga serves a different aim. Secondary, there is a belief yoga is a practice only for people of certain spirituality or status. However its founders claim that for example kundalini yoga is a practice for householders, who have to cope with the daily challenges and stresses of jobs, raising families, and managing businesses. Furthermore in order to change behaviour patterns, regular practice of kundalini yoga is the tool to change old habits which are not serving a person or community any more. Kundalini yoga has the ability through continuous daily practice to disrupt neurotic pathways of the brain, unlock this path and fit in completely new improved habits. Techniques of kundalini yoga balance body, mind and soul. With this project we wanted to provide yoga as a set of tools which could serve us to see young people we work with differently, more as unique human beings and with compassion. Furthermore, of course, this would enable the young people themselves to act beyond their prejudices, just as their surrounding and wider public, leading to the world with less prejudice, discrimination, giving the chance to disadvantaged youth to actually raise, and decrease inequality in Europe. We believe there is a need for transformation. As youth workers we are supposed to provide fair treatment to every young person we are working with. We believe yoga is a great tool to “unlearn” the social patterns we learnt throughout our life, such as stereotypes and prejudices, and acquire neutrality towards diverse groups of people as an alternative. This will lead to increased capacities of youth workers, but also motivation and wellbeing. The project also enhanced cooperation between organisations in the youth field, the international dimension of youth activities and equipped youth workers with competences and methods for their professional development, enabling them to better support marginalized young people. The aim of the project was to foster quality improvements in youth work and enhance the capacity of youth workers and youth organisations in their support for young people, especially the ones who are subject to marginalization. Objectives: To introduce yoga philosophy and methodology into European youth work, To deconstruct the out-dated limiting attitudes towards youth work and yoga, To explore, provide, exchange and develop innovative theories and educational approaches that youth workers can use in order to improve their work with marginalized youth that is subject to prejudices, To increase the capacities, motivation and wellbeing of youth workers, To develop sustainable practices that will be spread among youth workers around Europe, and follow-up actions targeting young people that the partners work with that will be implemented in the period of 3 months after the training course.
