Objectives

This project wanted to implement two goals. 1.) First it aims to challenge people to discover who they truly are, to know themselves better, to go deeper into themselves and to understand how they can use this knowledge to be closer to themselves, to find out what they want, what makes them happy and fulfilled and what gives meaning to their life. When they know that they can transmit that knowledge and information around them and make sure more people are in touch with themselves, being able to find their life purpose and go for more meaningful actions which will have a positive impact and effect in our society. 2.) Second it will provide methods of working with young people (how to improve personal skills, connecting young people in a group, influencing changes in their behavior, and how to implement this in organizations), and how to use sports and activities as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool. We intend to do that using sports and outdoor activities as a main tool. To make them get out of their comfort zone, to trigger them, to make them see and experience things differently, we will teach participants how to recognise and perceive personality traits through artificially created situations through sport, and above all how to influence young people through sports and planned outdoor activities and help them overcome stress and problems in everyday life. a.) Empower 21 youth workers to work with young people through sport b.) Develop a methodology on how to use sport as a diagnostic tool to identify deficits in young people and others c.) Develop a methodology on how to improve an individual's personality traits through sport d.) Develop a methodology on how to prevent mental distress and increase confidentiality among people for better therapeutic work in the future e.) Develop a methodology on how to use sport as a therapeutic tool f.) Develop a methodology for youth self-help through sport g.) Disseminate results to 30 people in partner organizations h.)
