Developing projects that are based on new methods and approaches seems to be especially important for youth workers who are dealing with difficult social issues, as they very often lack proper and effective tools to address their beneficiaries. Digital storytelling is a very inclusive method that can be used in various contexts and therefore we hope the skills and knowledge gained during this project will help our participants to create a new quality in their everyday work with young people. Objectives • To provide participants with knowledge about the digital storytelling method and its possible benefits for youth work, especially in the context of organising activities for young people at risk of exclusion ; • To equip them with skills necessary to design digital storytelling projects that promote inclusion in their respective home communities ; • To enhance participants ICT skills and encourage them to use open source technologies in their daily youth work ; • To establish a network of like-minded organisations and individuals, who are interested in the further exchange on the topic of using digital methods for working with youth; • To develop follow-up projects using the skills and knowledge gained during this project. The course addressed the need for further professional development of the youth workers and enhancement of the communication between young people and youth workers. It offered storytelling as a way to overcome personal barriers and become storytellers.
