POWER TO YOU(th)!
Training Course
24-29 May 2013 | Almada, Portugal
Power to You(th) is a training course on Youth Empowerment for youth workers working with young people with fewer opportunities.
Summary of Training Proposal
Power to You(th) provides youth workers with creative, adaptable tools and inspiration to facilitate youth empowerment and to promote active participation of young people, in particular young people with fewer opportunities. It will explore the tool of Youth Exchanges as part of the Youth in Action programme to inspire and empower young people to actively participate in society.
Using non-formal education methods and activities (such as outdoor work, experiential learning, theatre and community interaction), “Power to You(th)” aims at implementing an inspiring, active and creative space for the development of new ideas and exploring possibilities for youth empowerment. The training course gives participants the possibility to discover meaningful roles and develop different tools in their work around youth projects.
Our overall hope is that this training course will bring confidence and inspiration to youth workers to create powerful activities and projects with and for young people.
