Following the restrictions to deal with the epidemic caused by SARS-CoV-2, quarantine has been adopted as a measure to reduce the risk of infection in many countries, this has an important psychological impact on the population. When isolation is a constriction, experienced as a limitation of freedom and brings profound changes in one's life (such as job loss, inability to cultivate meaningful social relationships, suspension of outdoor and sports activities and non the less loss of friends or member of the family), one finds oneself dealing with stress, discomfort, depression, disconnection from reality and loss of trust. According to the study conducted by the team of Dr. Bonati, Department of Public Health (IRCCS), the most common psychological distress is represented by rather important symptoms, such as depression: bad mood and apathy characterize the majority of the interviewees. Soon after, we find the appearance of a feeling of constant anxiety, danger and worry. These symptoms are found in 15.5% of the population. The European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions (Eurifound) also analyzed the impact of the Covid-19 crisis on the living conditions of European citizens, paying particular attention to young people. Finding that 20% of young Europeans surveyed said they felt lonely "all or most of the time", compared to 15% of older cohorts. Furthermore, young respondents are more likely to feel depressed (16%) than older groups (12%). Finally, respondents aged 18 to 34, on a scale of 1 to 10, rated their life satisfaction on average 6.2, somewhat lower than that of over 50s (6, 4). Before the crisis, the 2016 European Quality of Life Survey (EQLS) found that young people had a much higher average life satisfaction of 7.4 than an overall average, which was also higher. equal to 7.1. In this context we have created "Awaken Connection" which aims to improve the well-being, adaptability and resilience of 24 youth workers who then will be able to create spaces for the positive development of young people, making use of mindfulness interventions through the nature-based approach. Many research studies shows that mindfulness improves mental, emotional, social and physical levels of health and well-being of young people, improves self-esteem (the ability to embrace one's strengths and individual difference), self-awareness ( the ability to know one's own needs), empathy and the ability to manage behaviors and emotions (to create / sustain social bonds and a sense of belonging). Mindfulness contributes directly to cognitive development, skills and performance (educational development skills). Contact with nature affects the central and vegetative nervous system, increasing vitality and creativity by 50%, decreasing stress, improving mental health, memory and increasing the sense of belonging. The main goals of 'Awaken Connection' were: 1. Improve youth workers' knowledge and skills about mindfulness with a nature based approach and its benefits for young people by 75% 2. Increase the motivation and inspiration of youth workers to work effectively with enthusiasm and empathy by 75%. 3. Implement 24 follow-up action plans with young people in the countries involved. The project is relevant to the European objectives for young people, including: mental health and well-being, constructive information and dialogue, quality learning, space and participation for all.
