From IKIGAI to Action - Youth Employability & Social Impact
Training Course
17-22 March 2026 | Rende, CS, Italy
"From IKIGAI to Action: Youth Employability & Social Impact" is a six-day training course, taking place from March 17 to March 22 in Rende (Italy), designed to support youth workers and young people aspiring to become youth workers in exploring purpose, employability and social impact through the IKIGAI framework.
The project aims to transform IKIGAI from a personal reflection tool into a practical methodology for youth work, supporting young people in connecting their passions, skills and values with meaningful social action.
The Training Course will be implemented through non-formal education methods, combining experiential learning, self-reflection and peer learning. Participants will explore and apply the IKIGAI framework through interactive workshops and group activities, transforming personal insights into practical tools for youth work. The process will support participants in developing concrete ideas and follow-up actions to be implemented in their local contexts.
The training course is designed for 30 participants who are expected to be active and have at least some experience in working with young people, such as facilitators, youth workers, trainers, educators, mentors, youth leaders, community leaders, etc. Participants need to have a good command of the English language and be motivated to fully commit to the training course and to the local follow-up activities afterwards.
