Description
Escape/quest games involve a team of people working together in order to fulfill challenging mental, logical, at times physical tasks. Such games are engaging, thrilling and produce emotions, while also build empathy to the characters, develop critical thinking, increase team spirit and give space for fruitful debriefing process and follow-up knowledge transfer, which makes it productive while reaching out to youth at risk.
“Escape Radicalization” will be an international Erasmus+ training course organized by Dansk ICYE and Youth Association Droni. The main activity of the project will take place in Rustavi (Georgia) during the period 09-17 November, 2018, including 27 participants from 8 different countries (Georgia, Denmark, Estonia, Ukraine, Belarus, Belgium, Norway and Czechia).

They should be interested in raising their level of competences in the topic of radicalization, being ready to share their own experiences, being motivated to experiment with innovative methodology and ready to work hard for delivering a physical outcome.
Participants should be at least 18 years old, have good level of English, and be willing and committed to work hard and actively participate in ALL sessions of the programme.
