Toolbox of activities focused on soft skills development
Toolbox made by participants of the project full of educational activities focused on soft skills development.
Aims of the tool
To provide young people activities focused on soft skills development.
Description of the tool
This toolbox was created as part of the Erasmus+ youth
exchange “Smart Tools: Essential Life Skills You Won’t Learn at School”, a project designed to help young people strengthen the personal and interpersonal skills that shape their everyday lives, academic journeys, and future careers. The exchange responded to a growing reality: while young people are increasingly well-prepared in their professional fields, they often enter the job market without the soft skills that employers consider essential such as communication, teamwork, conflict resolution, self-awareness, and stress management.
This toolbox gathers the workshops and exercises created by participants during the exchange. Each activity reflects their own insights, creativity, and lived experiences, offering practical tools that youth workers, educators, and facilitators can use to support the development of soft skills in diverse groups of young people.
The activities are adaptable, accessible, and suitable for a wide range of contexts whether supporting a future doctor, bartender, teacher, or even a young person aiming to lead their community.
At its core, the project emphasises that soft skills are not optional: they are essential building blocks for personal growth, meaningful relationships, and long-term success in any field.
This collection stands as a resource for anyone committed to empowering young people to thrive not only in their professions, but in life.
