Objectives

The project called ‘Innovate Yourself: Innovation Training Course for Youth Workers’ was all about improving skills of already competent youth workers in the sector of international level activities and possibilities of Erasmus + Programme and also in the sector of digital youthwork. We wanted to find new ways and working methods for youth workers to answer the challenges they face on a daily basis while working with youngsters and also to ensure that they are ready and equipped with the needed skills to be part of society right now and in the future. With our project we wanted to create a platform for youth workers to exchange experiences and ideas and also to contribute in advancing their everyday youthwork by developing innovative approaches and tools. Also we aimed to train youth workers’ mentoring skills and capacity to act as a multiplier on their daily basis, to increase participants’ digital awareness and to establish and improve international partnerships within KA1 Erasmus+ objectives. At the same time, we tried to cultivate active citizenship attitudes that are required to participate in and contribute to the public debate on the topic of innovating youth work.
