Training Course
15-19 September 2025 | Athens, Greece
A training program focused on strengthening the role of youth work in building resilient communities, mitigating the impact of natural disasters on young people, and fostering Erasmus+/Youth projects addressing climate change challenges.
Aim
To create a space for reflection, identification, and analysis of how youth work can contribute to building community resilience against natural disasters while empowering young people to take action.
Objectives
- Raise awareness on climate change and its impact on young people.
- Equip youth workers with tools to support communities before, during, and after disasters.

- Representatives of youth organizations and NGOs.
- Young leaders and activists passionate about climate resilience.
- Individuals interested in Erasmus+/Youth projects on disaster management.
Important to know
- The working language will be (international) English. Your English does not have to be perfect, but you need to be able to follow presentations and have discussions in English.
- You will be by default accommodated in twin rooms (a great opportunity to get to know a colleague youth worker better), but if you have a specific reason to have a single room, we can cater for that.
