About the project

📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

This seminar is a hands-on training experience for youth workers and camp leaders who already work with young people. It focuses on improving leadership skills and developing important soft skills to make youth work more effective. Participants will share best practices, learn new strategies, and discover fresh ideas to use in their daily work. It will be located in the mountains of northern Spain, which brings a peaceful, green environment that encourages personal connections and meaningful experiences in nature while maintaining an international atmosphere. Therefore, a key focus will be on hosting sustainable initiatives and promoting eco-friendly youth engagement. Beyond leadership training, participants will engage with nature, build a strong community, and create networks for future projects. By the end, they will feel more confident, capable, and inspired to make a lasting impact.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Venue: Participants will stay in a cozy accommodation in the rural town of Nava and share rooms (bunker beds) with participants from the same gender. Despite being a small town, Nava has all the necessary services, such as pharmacy, grocerie markets, bars and public areas, ensuring a comfortable stay while enjoying the green surroundings. Meals: Food is covered by the organization. Participants might need to cook and clean for themselves to introduce their national food during the intercultural nights, and bring relevant ingredients that might not be found in Spain.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: The ideal participant for this seminar is a youth worker or camp leader who is already actively engaged in working with young people.

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
