Mental health in youth work Training Course

Training Course

22-26 March 2027 | Brussels, Belgium - FR

The training provides a foundation for understanding how youth workers can strengthen and support young people’s mental health, wellbeing, and resilience; aimed for youth workers who work directly with young people in youth work settings.

Youth Work Can Promote Mental Health

The Mental Health in Youth Work training explores the role and competencies of the youth workers in supporting the mental health needs of young people by strengthening their emotional and mental health skills.

Objectives

The training course objectives are: 

  • Clarifying the understanding of what mental health means for ourselves
  • Raising awareness of the importance of mental health in youth work 
  • Understanding the role of youth workers in promoting mental health in their work with young people
  • Developing youth workers’ practical skills in supporting people’s mental health in their work
  • Exploring approaches, tools, and resources that can be adapted in the organisation’s work
  • Encouraging participants to reflect on their everyday practices with young people   
  • Enhancing the capacity to create a supportive, inclusive, and stigma-free environment

Mental Health from a preventive perspective

This training highlights mental health from a promotion and prevention perspective.

In this training, we do not approach mental health from the point of view of diagnosis, therapy, or healing – these approaches belong to the professional work outside youth work practices.

Time and venue

The training will be hosted in Belgium; the exact location will be announced later.

  • Monday, March 22 - arrival
  • Tuesday-Thursday March 23-25 - working days
  • Friday, March 26 - departure

This training is organised under Mental Health in Youth Work long-term project
