Our project is designed to support the professional development of youth workers, equip them with innovative training methods and strengthen their international cooperation. Within the scope of the project, various workshops will be organized to address the needs of youth workers and non-formal education and experiential learning methods will be used in this process. The workshops will cover topics such as values, participation and civil society, social inclusion, digital tools, environment and climate youth work. Participants will increase their skills in working with young people and discover good practice examples by sharing experiences within an international network. The project will be carried out under the Erasmus+ KA153 program and will contribute to strengthening cultural exchange and professional solidarity by bringing together youth workers from different countries. At the end of the project, a guide with practical tools and resources for youth workers will be prepared and disseminated.
