We believe in the value of performing arts applied in youth work. At the same time, we are aware of a widespread need, expressed by youth workers active in partner organizations, recipients of our training project "Theatre & Creativity as Tools for Youth", to want to update themselves by learning new activities, workshops, group management methodologies and innovative intercultural approaches, also dictated by the growing number of young people from other countries who move to those of our partnership and who, often, are the most vulnerable and with fewer opportunities. We would like to implement this training project also because many of the future participants, around the age of 30, have not yet found financial stability and are interested in the topic of social entrepreneurship to learn about new ways and possibilities of working in the third sector. Training courses of this type (Trainings for trainers), with an intercultural approach and European dimension, are rather rare and often extremely expensive, therefore potentially inaccessible to our participants. Furthermore, our training course has been conceived, since this initial phase of conception, starting from the needs of the youth workers we are targeting and of the project partner entities, with a clear vision of the young beneficiaries of our associations (generally between 15 and 25 years old) and with a strong focus on inclusion for the most vulnerable - young people with disabilities, migrants, displaced persons and refugees, young NEETs. Therefore, we have chosen for our project the following themes: 1) "Creativity, Art & Culture" because both the participating youth workers and the young people entrusted to them are lovers of them and make theatre, performing arts and, more generally, creativity the focus of their interests. Although besieged by suffocating consumerism and the prospect of a job (when available) that is well-controlled and regulated, we believe in the arts as a key dimension for the realization of life, as an opportunity for growth and training, bearer and disseminator of positive and healthy values such as beauty, chorality, expression and joy. We see knowledge, sharing and learning of forms of art and culture as powerful tools for aggregation, producers of growth and inner and collective harmony. 2) "Quality and Innovation in Youth Work", since all the project partners, through questionnaires administered to their youth workers, future participants in the training course, have found the importance and need for new training activities and educational methodologies. The need to update oneself in a European context leads to the acquisition of new ideas and energy in youth work. We know that the artistic-training activities adopted by them in the realities of our partnership, however valid, will be able to improve by comparing themselves with the trainers and with their peers, thus integrating and expanding the training offer to a wider and more intercultural range of young beneficiaries. A training conceived in this way represents the opportunity for a special time, dedicated to act as an incubator for all those projects, ideas and intuitions often necessarily set aside by our participants and project partners and that now, instead, we would like to bring to light and make them grow and develop in all their creativity, away from the daily routine. 3) "Entrepreneurial learning - Entrepreneurship education", a very important aspect, in the medium and long term, within our partnership. Few people in the third sector and in particular in youth work manage to enjoy permanent contracts: most struggle between temporary contracts and project work, which is why it is necessary to acquire knowledge and skills in social entrepreneurship and restructure one's work environment. Training and updating oneself in an international context allows one to improve one's employment outlook, embracing one's social ethics and, at the same time, reducing the possibility of burnout linked to job insecurity. In summary, our objectives are: 1) to enhance the artistic-educational competences of the participating youth workers to allow them to grow personally, professionally and socially; 2) to promote, through theatre and the performing arts, the dissemination of healthy values such as beauty, solidarity and the common good; 3) to use theatre and the performing arts as tools for non-formal education; 4) to facilitate the conception, management and evaluation by participants of new activities aimed at young people; 5) to improve the quality and quantity of youth work in our partnership; 6) strengthen the visibility and dissemination of our work.
