Seminar
29 May - 3 June 2022 | Ostend, Belgium - FL
Seminar
On a daily basis, many of us do too much and pause too little. Rarely do we get to step back and really check in with ourselves and with each other. The purpose of this seminar is to slow down together in order to meet the urgent challenges of our youth work. This gathering is an opportunity to have those authentic conversations we may not usually get to have: about the dreams that drive the work we do, the struggles that we move through, and the magic that keeps us going. It is a five day co-created seminar where we invite 22 active youth workers (got next) to reflect, share, get inspired, build community, and create new possibilities.
Objectives
Approach & format
This seminar focuses on 3 levels of development, exploration and solutions within the field of youth work for and by youth workers from all different working environments. We believe that in order to create a well rounded framework, navigating through the personal, interpersonal and systemic ways of change is a crucial starting point.
You can expect a blend of diverse non-formal education methods such as facilitated dialogues, individual reflection, teambuilding, games, group work, appreciative inquiry, open space, hanging out (did you know that the most highly rated sessions at many conferences are the coffee breaks?), … The program will be co-created by the participants and adapted to the concrete needs, challenges and interests of the selected participants.
Target group
"we got next." It's the three-word ticket to play in street-corner basketball. It means, "Please, may we play the next game when you are through?"
This seminar will be organized for change makers, working on a daily basis with children and/or young people and who need a pause to reboot, recharge, reflect, reconnect, reevaluate, …
We welcome youth workers who have the ambition or space to take on a bigger role within their organisation/collective/community (future team coaches, coördinators, trainers, project managers) and who are willing to share the reflections and outcomes of the seminar with their youth work tribe.
You need to be able to speak and understand English as it is our working language. We also expect you to be committed to participate actively during the full duration of the seminar. You don’t need to have knowledge about the European mobility programmes.
In order to create a safe space, we expect participants to be open, willing to share and listen and eager to have their perspectives and practices challenged.
Then this international seminar is something for you!
