Youth Work in the AI Era

The training activity took place
in Lithuania
organised by Neribota Ateitis
16th March - 25th March 2026

Aims & objectives

This training will bridge the AI knowledge gap by equipping youth workers with
practical skills, ethical awareness and critical thinking to integrate AI into their work
responsibly. Participants will learn how to use AI tools effectively while maintaining
a human-centered approach, ensuring that technology supports rather than
replaces personal engagement. The program will provide hands-on methodologies
applicable for youth work, addressing digital literacy disparities and guiding
participants on ethical AI implementation to prevent bias, misinformation and
dehumanization.

35 participants from 7 countries of EU.
