Objectives

The project aimed to provide youth workers with tools to enhance their self-acceptance and mental health and to support youngsters they work with to achieve the same. Specifically, our objective was to help the participants and the young people to: - develop a self-care attitude - accept imperfections - decrease excessive stress, anxiety and risk of depression or burnout - cultivate calm, clarity and focus - increase compassion (kind attitude towards oneself and others) - deal with self-critical voice and failures - build better relationships with others, be more tolerant and contribute to cohesive and inclusive society that respects diversity These achievements aimed to increase the quality and impact of youth work practice. Mental health disorders are widespread among young people and that is why youth workers need to learn methods and techniques to support youngsters in enhancing their mental health and living fulfilling and balanced lives.
