Training “Un-labelling, discrimination and acceptance” 7th-14th June 2019, Toledo, Spain

About the Training Course

Un-labelling is a TC that intends to guide a group of 16 youth workers to become good examples for their youngsters in the fight against radicalization and intolerance, while presenting, at the same time, an opportunity for those youth workers and their organizations to boost their interculturaldimension and their ability to accept diversity.

The project aims to:

• work on the understanding and acceptance of differences in order toavoid prejudice, conflicts and hate speech, as well as on the understanding of the emotions behind those human behaviours as the way to prevent discrimination and bullying.
• forge multipliersthat will spark those with whom they will interact to be more understanding and open to differences.
• provide participants with tools, skills and methods with which to help on fighting discriminatory attitudes in and within their youngsters.

The organizer

Methodology

Non-formal learning[1]it’s a key feature of the Erasmus⁺ Program. The European programs provide opportunities for you to learn new things, get ideas andexperience.Therefore, it is an important instrument for non-formal and informal learning at a Europeandimension.

Echipa POINT OF VYOU (POV)

 

 

POINT of VYOU

Spunea Socrate că educația este “ Îmblânzirea unei flăcări, nu umplerea unui vas.” Într-o lume din ce în ce mai grăbită și închinată pragmatismului, facilului și comercialului, tinerii de multe ori se simt confuzi și pierduți cu privire la viața pe care doresc să și-o contureze, la ce sunt talentați, ce îi motivează, ce îi emoționează și unde își pot folosi mai bine potențialul.

O decizie pripită a unui tânăr construiește pe termen lung un adult frustrat și trist, prins într-o închisoare din care nu știe cum să mai scape.

POINT OF VYOU (POV) este un centru intercultural dedicat tinerilor, creat cu scopul de a completa și a echilibra stilul de viața a persoanelor interesate în dezvoltarea și atingerea potențialului lor, printr-o creștere multilaterala sustenabila.

 

Misiunea POV consistă în: 

– a dezvolta programe inspiraționale care să creeze schimbări echilibrate și de durată în viața tinerilor, dar și alternative de îmbunătățire a standardului de viață.

– a determina o schimbare socială prin încurajarea membrilor comunității de a fi activi, de a-și deschide mintea și de a privi viața dintr-o altă perspectivă.

 

Activitățile POV se centrează pe 3 dimensiuni principale: dezvoltare personală, dezvoltare profesională  și responsabilitate globală.

Pentru atingerea acestor scopuri utilizam diverse metode, cum ar fi, metoda Storytelling-ului, facilitare grafica, introspecție, exprimare si improvizatie, reciclare creative, și creare de jocuri educative.

Viziunea noastră este a unei lumi în care tinerii au un stil de viața armonios, în care își pot atinge potențialul și  în care pot crea un mediu sustenabil, in definitiv pot deveni oameni mai buni și prietenoși cu mediul în care trăiesc și la care pot contribui pozitiv. (in care se pot implica activ)

Majoritatea activităților organizației au fost implementate la nivel European, cu tineri din toate tarile europene cat si de pe alte continente, iar acum dorim sa dezvoltam mai mult la nivel local și regional, cu tineri români, unii dintre ei venind și din parteneriate cu tarile Europene.

Organizația s-a ocupat de educatie, jocuri, dezvoltare personală și înțelegere a potențialului fiecăruia, reciclarea și reorganizarea obiectivelor personale cat si profesionale. Pe termen lung organizatia are ca scop crearea unui punti intre planul personal si cel global, radicand nivelul de constiinta al tinerilor cu privire la ceea ce ii inconjoara.

POINT OF VYOU este o organizație de tineret ce dorește să creeze o un stil de viață echilibrat și sustenabil, să invite la pace și înțelegere între diferite culturi.  Oferă acces la instrumente și modalități de dezvoltare multilaterală și echilibrare a stilului de viața.

Este o combinație de experiențe multiculturale, metode și puncte de vedere, cu alternative a educatiei. Prin toate aceste activtati dezvolta un process de Long Life Learning.

Este necesară o abordare diferită din cauza sărăciei, nefericirii, nemulțumirii tinerilor cu privire la faptul ca nu se pot mobiliza și crește authentic in era virtual, care duce spre un stil de viață sedentar.

 

“Sometimes all you need to do is to look at life from a different perspective!”

“Suntem cu totii condusi de nevoia de a implini 6 nevoi umane de baza. Aceste 6 nevoi umane nu sunt doar dorinte, nu sunt ceva ce VREM. Sunt nevoi profunde care exista in fiecare dintre noi si care servesc ca fundament pentru fiecare alegere pe care o facem.” Anthony Robbins

Cele 6 Nevoi Emotionale ale Fiintei Umane:

1. Certitudine/ Siguranta
2. Incertitudine/ Diversitate
3. Semnificație/ Importanta
4. Conexiune
5. Creștere/ Dezvoltare
6. CONTRIBUTIE

Noi, oamenii, avem nevoie sa contribuim cumva… la ceva… este una dintre cele mai importante nevoi pentru a ne atinge misiunea noastra.

A darui cuiva ceva inseamna a-ti darui tie ceva. A contribui la ceva anume inseamna a te simti implinit. A darui din inima, a participa la ceva anume, a ajuta pe cineva, a face un bine cuiva, a simti ca faci din aceasta lume un loc mai bun si mai frumos, a contribui la un lucru nobil, valoros, toate aceste nevoi sunt inradacinate in fiecare dintre noi. Chiar daca uneori avem tendinta de a darui altora mai mult decat ne daruim noi insine, “contributiile nu trebuie doar facute altora. Contributia fata de noi insine este atitudinea cea mai potrivita prin care putem darui mediului si oamenilor ce ne inconjoara.

• the evolution into English to manage to be understood by a wider range of people.

Starting from poems of mother tongue we identify a way to transmit the content without necessary knowing the english translation.

The aim is to increase the capacity of communication of personal ideas in order to find an effective way to reach the listeners.To find this way we want to invite participants to explore different languages involved in expression and communication: body language using theatre, poetry form to include affective side of communication, mother tongue to be aware of the source of the thought, the evolution into English to manage to be understood by a wider range of people in the most suitable way.

The final aim is for youngsters to reach a greater ability in organization and usability of own skills from the perspective of development of messages contained into ideas, often transmitted in the wrong way.

What: Erasmus+ Training course RE:Play – creative gamification in youth work

When: 30 August – 9 September 2019

Where: Gura Diham, Busteni, Romania

For whom: 23 youth leaders from 7 European countries: Bulgaria, Finland, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Spain, Romania

This training course is designed by a group of specialists on design, upcycling, sustainability, educational games, personal development and social entrepreneurship. It was developed based on the premise that creative recycling and educational games (used in youth work, communities, workshops, trainings), are approaching urgent issues related to social exclusion, disempowerment and radicalization of young people, as well as Global Changes. Those are making a very big contribution by including young people (cause they are innovative, attractive, user-friendly), raising awareness, responsibility and engaging diverse target groups.

We believe this mixture of methods will give the chance to the participants to develop life skills, creativity, flexibility and spontaneity. The creation is happening from individual level until a group context. Therefore objectives of this project that are solving our main problems are:

1. Increase the level of awareness about sustainable lifestyle, global challenges and responsibilities, through educational tools, in order to enable minim 42 YW to act as Global Responsible multipliers back in their communities.

2. Empower YWs with more than 10 educational tools and new materials from used resources in order to develop abilities to facilitate methods or educational games in diverse settings and youth work contexts (creating 15 useful accessories and 4 inspirational games);

3. During 9 full days of TC to develop a proactive attitude to approach excluded young people, to increase the level of creativity, innovation, self confidence, through 1 local event, 4 educational games and 6 sessions of creative recycling, all this for a wide understanding and motivation of youth workers in order to empower youngsters.

4. To create an online space, for youth to inspire them and to create a shift in their minds from personal to global responsibility, by adding good practice and healthy habits in their daily life, practicing from the TC, all this in order to contribute to a sustainable environment and long-term change in educational approach in youth field;

Number and profile of participants that we target with our training course: YW, coaches, trainers, volunteers of youth associations who want to learn and implement new methods in their work with young people and especially with disadvantaged groups. We expect YW who have an NGO or Informal group already, and/or youth workers who are interested in applying new methods in youth work. In order to give quality to our project, we will have maximum 30 pax/7 countries, around 4/ country, including 9 pax with fewer opportunities and 6 facilitators.

Description of activities: In the creative recycling workshops we create objects out of household leftovers, we create objects which can be used afterwards such as BG, wallets, musical instruments, phone holders, jewellery. After all we reflect on the result and the process, on working styles and teamwork (Be a designer).Later on they will be able to transfer it to their work and reach wide public.

 

We do team building processes, or different self-development processes outside. The creative event is also held outside of the venue, we find it important that for this event we use other environment. We hold processes which are different in length and different methods, and are there to support pax in their learning, in discovering their own strengths and questions.

Participants already in the TC put in practice what they have learnt, organizing workshops for students and an open event for local people. The method of edugaming is also presented, organizing a short open recycling game session during the event.
This TC is meant to trigger creativity, reflection and action in a sustainable manner. The impact is made from: value that people can give to things from our surroundings in order to be global responsible and to self developed in the same time. YW develop essential skills to work with youth, especially disadvantaged groups to be able to practice the newly acquired competences in everyday life, and share the knowledge in working with YW back in their countries. YW develop international connections during the TC and projects together in the future in which they use similar innovative methods to support youth. In this partnership we have a LT goal to make the already existing NGOs
sustainable, to ensure resupply of staff members, to support youth in general to create sustainable ventures and create job opportunities for themselves and for others. Youth workers working with and around the partner organizations will also benefit from the project.They participate in future projects and see nonformal education as a way of learning and supporting society or the environment. This opens their horizons and provides them a new understanding of „lifelong learning” where learning happens while playing and creating something unique.
