TOY - Trainers Online for Youth
This is a reference for Antonio Benaches Bodí
The main aim is to inform participants thoroughly for the opportunities and benefits of Erasmus+, theoretically and practically. The objectives of the project look forward to:
• Support youth workers and trainers of new generation
• Contribute to the identification of 'non-formal/informal education' through its tools (learning to participate, peer learning, intercultural dialogue etc)
• Focus on the learner, his needs, expectations, respect of diversity, promoting equal educational opportunities
• Develop skills and abilities, strengthen 'professional profile', share good practices
• Motivate for active participation and taking initiatives in local, national and international level, support and develop 'youth working' in Greece
• Support youth organizations, their intersectional cooperation and their role as multipliers
Youth Horizons is a new organization, so this is the "starting" style of project for us.
32 Youth Workers from 8 European countries: Greece, Spain, Italy, Poland, Hungary, Turkey, Lithuania, Estonia.
The followed training methodology is based on Non-formal Education and its tools: learning to participate, peer learning, intercultural dialogue, study-visits, role-playing, working groups, ice-breakers, energizers, study visits, etc.
These are the expected results:
Strengthen the profile of participants, capable and motivated youth workers, useful in the European
context, as they will gain knowledge and develop skills, both social (team spirit, solidarity, respect of
diversity etc.) and personal (critical thinking, creativity etc.)
Co-create promotional Erasmus+ video and draw collaboratively new Erasmus+ project which will
reflect the coupling of people from different countries with different perspectives, habits and concerns
Come in contact with different cultures and with local and national lifestyle
Been awarded with european certification Youthpass and strengthen their CV
