AIM OF THE PROJECT
Our project is aimed at EU, Western Balkan and EECA countries to develop and improve the conflict management competencies with a special focus on emotional intelligence and communication of youth workers in order to become able to prepare, run and evaluate high-quality youth work activities targeting young people with a different cultural background such as refugees, migrants, minorities, Roma, etc. according to the principles of conflict prevention and resolution. We live in multicultural, cross-cultural and intercultural societies. Our local communities are not homogeneous anymore thanks to the free European mobility, the open borders and markets for European citizens, and the hosting of refugees and migrants from other parts of the world.
As youth workers, we have to deal with:
– different cultural young people whose behavioral norms, values and schemes could be different than the local ones;
– young people with refugees background from an absolutely different culture, even still traumatized by their previous life experiences;
– the 2nd generation of migrant kids who don’t belong to the culture of their parents, however, don’t find their place in the culture of the majority.
OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT
Reflecting directly on necessary competences of 44 youth workers in the areas of emotional intelligence, conflict management and communication;
conflict management and communication;
experiencing methods and techniques to increase competences in the areas of emotional intelligence, conflict management and communication;
supporting participants in mastering experienced techniques and methods and transferring these methods and techniques to their work with young people, including young people with fewer opportunities;
