The main activity of the project was a course of the Dragon Dreaming Method. Each partner organization designated two participants, totaling 24 individuals, from their interested pool of youth workers to partake in the course. The main beneficiaries of the training course, which focused on the Dragon Dreaming Method, were the youth workers from the partner entities. These individuals were chosen through an open and public process. This group holds strategic significance as they directly influence young people through their daily interactions, making them both immediate benefactors and multipliers of the training's impact.
The newly acquired skills, attitudes, and knowledge from the course are anticipated to aid youth workers in facilitating the personal, social, and educational growth of young people. Additionally, these tools will foster greater engagement and empowerment among the youth, achieved through informal education and leisure strategies.
Our participant selection criteria were carefully established to align with the course's subject and nature. This ensured that chosen participants were well-suited for the project's activities. The criteria and envisioned profile included:
Active Youth Work: Participants were expected to be actively involved in youth work.
English Proficiency: Adequate English skills were required for comprehending the training content and effective communication with fellow participants and facilitators.
Motivation: Participants should display enthusiasm for engaging in an international project, interacting with individuals from diverse perspectives and cultures, and coexisting with them during the training.
Collaboration: Active participation and willingness to collaborate in course activities were essential.
Youth Work Experience: Participants were required to possess experience in youth work and a future commitment to furthering their involvement and transferring the newfound knowledge.
International Engagement: Participants should be capable of solidifying international connections and collaborative efforts with other entities, offering ongoing updates and network expansion opportunities.
