The training course "First Things First: From a Mental Health Perspective" was developed in response to the growing awareness of the importance of mental health among young people and those who work with them as our main priority also in accreditation. Youth workers often find themselves as first-line supporters for young individuals facing emotional or psychological difficulties, yet many lack the training and tools to respond effectively. This project aimed to close that gap by equipping youth workers and volunteers with the necessary knowledge, skills, and attitudes to support both their own mental well-being and that of the young people they work with. The main objective of the project was to promote the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of youth workers and the youth they support. We focused on learning how to apply emotional-cognitive skills, appropriate communication strategies, and techniques that help maintain motivation and emotional balance. More specifically, the objectives were: • To develop the competence to apply basic self-help techniques to support mental health; • To enable participants to offer initial support and guidance to young people experiencing mental health concerns; • To help participants recognize key behaviors and risk factors that may signal mental health problems; • To teach participants how to use the Mental Health First Aid action plan to provide timely support; • To raise awareness about stigma and its harmful impact on individuals with mental health challenges; • To empower participants to promote mental health-friendly environments in their youth work settings. The project also supported the broader goals of the Erasmus+ programme by promoting inclusion, social equity, and lifelong learning, and by enhancing the competencies of youth workers in non-formal education settings. Youth exchange “Getting Outside” was designed to address the increasing challenges young people face related to mental well-being, screen overuse, and reduced physical activity. By focusing on outdoor learning and active learning, the project aimed to create a healthy, engaging, and supportive environment for personal and social development. The main objectives were: • To reduce participants' stress levels and screen time; • To promote mental health through outdoor and active learning methods; • To improve relationships and cooperation between participants; • To support physical health, motor skills, and cognitive development; • To enhance memory, concentration, learning ability, motivation, and overall well-being. Through experiential, nature-based, and participatory learning, the project encouraged creativity, curiosity, independent thinking, and meaningful peer interaction. Project promoted Erasmus+ priorities such as healthy lifestyles, inclusion, personal growth, and intercultural dialogue. Training course “The Root – Empowering Self-Image” was focused on youth workers to better understand the deep connection between self-image, personal belief systems, and mental well-being. Many young people today struggle with low self-esteem, self-doubt, and identity-related challenges — areas where youth workers often play a crucial supportive role. This project aimed to equip youth workers with the tools, methods, and self-awareness necessary to empower young people in building a healthy and resilient self-image. The main objectives were: • To deepen youth workers’ self-awareness by exploring personal belief systems and their impact on mental well-being; • To support the personal and professional growth of youth workers through reflective, embodied, and creative practices; • To provide a practical set of tools and exercises to help youth workers address self-image and belief-related topics with young people; • To foster empowerment, peer support, and identity exploration as methods for promoting mental health and self-expression in youth work. Rooted in experiential learning, the project aligned with Erasmus+ priorities by promoting inclusion, mental well-being, and the development of competencies relevant to youth workers across Europe.
