The training “Volunteering from a new angle” as part of the Erasmus+ “Blue Hearts” project was held on June 15 with the aim of increasing the interest of Stryi youth in volunteering.
The participants of the event were 24 young people aged 16 to 25, including internally displaced persons (IDPs) who currently live in the Stryi community.
The training program included a variety of activities, from the presentation of the goals and achievements of the “Blue Hearts” project and discussions on the topic of volunteering as a tool for social change and its role in the career development of young people, to practical workshops and cases.
The block dedicated to the development of initiatives to solve social problems was particularly important, where participants in working groups discussed the most pressing problems of the community and proposed concrete solutions. The practical part helped young people feel their ability to influence changes in the community.
The feedback from the participants was extremely positive, many expressed their desire to participate in similar events in the future. Thank you to everyone who participated in the organization and conduct of the training. Ahead – new interesting events and opportunities!
The coordination of the training was carried out by youth worker Anna Karnaukhova, an active participant of the “Blue Hearts” project.
The training was conducted within the framework of the Blue Hearts project, which is implemented by the AY Institute (Lithuania), Asociatia CPDIS (Romania), Fundacja Nowy Staw (Poland) and Young Agents of Change (Ukraine), and is financed by the European Union.
