The project was developed in response to significant changes affecting youth work in Europe in 2024–2025. Youth workers are operating in a context shaped by the long-term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine and its social consequences, increasing mental health concerns among young people, and rapid digital transformation, including the growing use of AI and Machine Learning tools. Within this context, the partnership identified a need to strengthen professional competences in youth work. Many practitioners reported increased mental health challenges among young people, digital fatigue, and uncertainty regarding the responsible integration of new technologies into youth work practice. At the same time, organisations across the partner countries were adapting to new geopolitical realities, inclusion challenges, and climate-related concerns such as eco-anxiety. The project aimed to support youth workers in developing more reflective, resilient and future-oriented approaches. Four main objectives guided the implementation: Develop innovative practices: To exchange and develop methodologies that respond to evolving needs in youth work and move beyond reactive crisis responses. Enhance mental health support competences: To strengthen youth workers’ ability to recognise and respond to anxiety, depression, post-pandemic stress and eco-anxiety among young people. Integrate digital and AI literacy: To critically explore digital transformation and AI tools in youth work, promoting balanced and responsible use. Strengthen transnational cooperation: To build a European community of practice that enables exchange of experiences and strengthens professional identity across partner countries. The project was also designed to contribute to organisational development within the partner institutions and to inform the ongoing development of the Bachelor’s degree in Youth Work and Leisure Time Pedagogy in Norway. In line with Erasmus+ priorities, the project encouraged environmentally responsible practices, including green travel where feasible and the use of sustainable local services. Non-formal learning outcomes were validated through Youthpass and Open Learning Badges. The primary target group consisted of 62 youth workers from NGOs, municipal youth centres and related structures. The ultimate intention was to strengthen their capacity to support young people facing mental health pressures, digital challenges and social uncertainty.
