Non Formal Education For the Next Generation

"Non-Formal Education for the next Generation" is a six-days training course taking place close to Limoges (France) between the 10th and 17th of March 2014 The general aim of this project is to improve the quality of youth work on local and international levels, using Non-Formal Education. We will bring together youth workers from different cultures, backgrounds, countries, allowing them to develop a certain knowledge of intercultural learning; we will give them the opportunity to discover and experiment new Non Formal Education methods; we plan to bring international NFE knowledge to local youth working; and we hope to work on future projects together, promoting mobility. In total, twenty participants (four from each country : France, Spain, Romania, Poland, Croatia) will be able to take part in this project. Their profile will be diverse (youth workers, holiday camp coordinators and leaders, volunteers, ...) as we would like to question youth work national specifities. A european team of three trainers will permit us to reach our goals - through non-formal educational methods, role games, simulation exercises, peer to peer education, workshops, debates... - and also thanks to visits, intercultural evenings, reflections groups and - last but not least - informal moments.
