Mediators for LifE+

(Training course)

Let's explore “Mindfulness” in interactive and playful ways !

 

 

/2-10.11. 2022/Pettenasco/Italy

Organizator of the project: Associazione Culturale Mastronauta

The training course will take place between the 2nd of October and to 10th of October 2022 in Pettenasco, Italy.

During our time as youth workers we realised, on one hand, the effect that conflicts might have in youth groups, inside youth work organisations and the pressing need for mediation competences and on the other hand, the power of a processed conflict to create a breakthrough in the group’s understanding of the member’s unsatisfied needs and unproductive ways of regulating emotions.

Objectives of the course:

-To provide Youth workers with knowledge about conflict management (mediation) using NFE methods, which they can then apply in their typical work and life, both to develop themselves and to develop their youth beneficiaries, their organisations.

- For YWs to explore and develop in practice their conflict management skills (mediation), using non-formal methods that they can apply/adapt further to different settings and situations. During the project the participants will have the opportunity to test and adapt in real time, their newly acquired skills.

-To make YWs aware of the importance of conflict management (CM) skills and the social responsibility they have as YWs and the way this can be applied to and benefit in their work with youth; and how incorporating CM activities can enhance their professional self-development, general wellbeing and the quality of their activities.
