TOY - Trainers Online for Youth
This is a reference for Charlotte Bohl-Mustafa
The major aim of this training course is to support youth/social workers to develop their competences in empowering young people with fewer opportunities to become aware of, and act on, their dreams and visions of their own futures.
For today’s young people – especially those who are NEET or who have more difficulty accessing mobility and employment programmes – the pressure to “get a job” is great - but employment opportunities are scarce.
At the same time, many youth workers – whilst understanding the need of society to see these young people “fitting in” - would like to create the kind of safe environment to help young people develop their competences in a wider sense than that of simply being able to “find employment” or “start up a business” – but, really, to discover what competences they already have – and explore what dreams and passions they might have for creating not only a better future for themselves – but, potentially, also for making more of an impact on the world they live in….
Target group: The TC gathered 24 youth workers from 15 different european countries, from coming from various fields working with young people from diverse backgrounds - especially those who are NEET – who wanted to be better equipped to empower young people to access services, employment and mobility opportunities.

With used Non Formal education methodology for this TC. We used creative thinking exercises, outdoor activities, inputs about the topics and lots of funny and dreamy activities : meditation, treasure hunt, origami, music, etc.
The results of the training were very positive. Participants show in their evaluations a high perceived development especially in their capacity to reconnect to one's ideal-self ( to their own dreams, passion, etc).
In this training I was part of the trainers team.
We design the training the 4 of us together.
I delivered specific session about "learning how to learn", "clean language and grow model", "Bringing
dreams to the surface"
I also contributed to the preparation of the TC (organisation & logistics) as the training was taking care in Lyon, FR
