Stagecraft for Youth Workers: youth work, communication skills, public speaking, comedy

An Erasmus+ training course for youth workers based on presentation, communication and engagement skills. And the first time I integrated a stand-up comedy workshop in an E+ course.

Share the Right Story (Slovenia) – a little darker, but still a hero’s journey

The third (and a half) edition of “Share the right story” (twitter, facebook page) has taken place in a beautiful October week in Ajdovščina (yes, I have to google it every time), in Slovenia. We were hosted by our friends of Društvo Center za pomoč mladim. I mean, just check the video made by the amazing […]

What a story! Trying to understand the heart of the heart of Europe

Our Hungarian friends in Ecoservice were hosting an Erasmus+ training course trying to combine storytelling, nature and political activism. Bára and yours truly were there as trainers.

This time, we took it back where it all started: […]

Game of Wellness: a training course on wellness in non formal education

Well: I was feeling really well at the idea of writing well this post about wellness. Such an abused word, isn’t it? Wellness. What does it even mean? We had a training course exploring the topic. It was an intense journey, a week of great inspiration, connection and personal development. So I am here to celebrate […]

Share the Right Story

If I had to choose an alternate title for this post, it would be: Back to The Future. I even have the soundtrack of the classic 80s movie going on in my mind right now! And then I understood why. Because in “Share the Right Story” – training course co-funded by the European programme Erasmus+ – […]
