Description

“Your Passion-Your Future” will be a training course aiming to equip teachers, youth workers and active young volunteers of NGO’s with tools and  to share experiences and information about the challenges faced by young people today, to consider how passions can develop the skills needed for the future, and how adults can support young people in doing so.

The main goals of the training activity are:

  • To work on developing among young people key competencies such as: learning skills, social and civic competencies, initiative and entrepreneurship, cultural awareness and expression, as well as soft skills and self-presentation.
  • To make young people aware of the benefits of developing passions in the context of development of key competencies and future success.

We want to achieve this by discovering and pointing out with young people how developing passions can help them in their adult life, by working on their competencies and soft skills, raising their awareness and building proactive attitudes, training leaders and youth workers how to recognize, support and develop the young people’s key competencies through their passions, promoting non-formal education and developing passions as key elements in the comprehensive development of young people
