In this training course, participants reflected on challenges, shared experiences and developed practical approaches that strengthened their ability to care for their own wellbeing, and the wellbeing of their fellow tutors and youth workers. In particular, the training focused on analysing, trying out, and designing strategies and tools for youth workers that combine self-care with communal care. After the first few days of entering the topic of burnout and work culture, with a focus on the field of youth work, the participants worked in small groups and developed: a Monthly calendar of activities to improve your mental and physical health, a Conflict resolution tool, and designed an accessible Walk-and-Talk activity that allows us to take a conscious break from a stressful environment and reflect. The methodology of peer-to-peer learning was key to this training.
