After the pandemic and the war in Ukraine, new challenges emerged, affecting young people particularly hard, including coping with uncertainty and mental and physical health. To address these issues, this training focused on strengthening personal well-being, supporting others, and exploring the role of youth work in these changing times. In addition to traditional informal methods, the training incorporated outdoor learning through hikes, group challenges, and nature-based activities. The main goals were to: - Share experiences and solutions for well-being, - Reflect on and develop values in youth work, - Learn to design informal educational activities with outdoor elements. After the training in Georgia, participants will apply these skills in their home countries to turn discussed values into real actions for a positive future.
Digital Media Tools For Successful Dissemination

“Digital Media Tools For Successful Dissemination” aims to enhance NGO and social media relations by addressing gaps in project dissemination through innovative social media management. As social media becomes vital for communication, many NGOs struggle with outdated methods, inconsistent updates, and poor engagement. This project focuses on empowering NGOs with skills in social media management, content creation, and effective dissemination strategies to improve outreach and project impact. Key objectives include: - Enhancing NGOs' ability to disseminate projects effectively - Developing social media management skills - Promoting non-formal learning and intercultural exchange - Exploring innovative content creation and ad tools - Strengthening media communication skills among NGO workers.

CIRI–Cooperation for Improved Refugee Integration

The project, held for the third time at the "Youth Center Epirus" in Ioannina, Greece, aims to improve the integration process of refugees, asylum seekers, and internally displaced persons (IDPs) in the communities where they currently reside, a topic that is highly relevant for Ukraine. The main focus of the training was their involvement in youth work and volunteering, with a special emphasis on the safety and protection of minors. Participants shared their experiences of working or volunteering with these groups, learned about best practices from experienced organizations in this field, and took part in group discussions and activities, such as using theatrical methods in their work. Based on one of the training courses conducted, an introductory guide and toolbox for non-formal education were created for those working with teenage and young adult refugees, asylum seekers, and displaced persons. This guide was developed by 48 participants during the "Cooperation for Improved Refugee Integration, Vol. 2" training course, in 2022. The proposed activities are best practices that can be easily adapted to the needs and realities of the people you work with.

Families of people with disabilities have faced job losses and mental health struggles due to caregiving responsibilities during and after lockdowns. "Need for Lead" has two main goals: 1. Mental Health Support: Develop a guide to help family members of people with disabilities adapt mentally. Based on this guide, we'll train local mentors to run pilot activities in each partner country. 2.

Autumn Retreat
28.10-03.11.24
In the fall of 2024, we held our first teen retreat in the Carpathians. These were days filled with new friendships, deep self-discovery, sincere emotions, adventures, and plenty of joy.
In the very heart of the mountains, at the cozy eco-resort “Izky,” we created a safe space where each participant could be themselves, meet new friends, and recharge.
We talked about trust and finding ourselves, sang by the fire, danced at the disco, carved pumpkins for Halloween, and climbed the peaks.
This retreat marked the beginning of a great tradition.
Winter Retreat
27.12.24-04.01.25
In winter, we returned to the Carpathians as a community that already shares memories.
We went tubing, took the ski lift, hiked along mountain trails, and celebrated New Year’s Eve together — around a big table, with contests, music, and the feeling of “I belong here.”
There was a mix of energy and calm — in psychological sessions, we shared what mattered, spoke about ourselves, support, pain, and what inspires us.
Spring Retreat
22.03-28.03.25
This spring, we returned to the Carpathians for the third time with an updated program and new activities.
The retreat became a space for recharging, connection, and deep conversations. We explored ourselves in psychological workshops, admired the mountains, and relaxed in hot tubs.
For the first time, we added spoken English practice — through games and easy immersion, which made the program even more engaging.
Quests, parties, night movies, challenges, yoga, meditation, and creativity — every day was packed with an amazing vibe.
