Details:
TC “Animate the Change” will bring together youth workers and youth leaders active in global education and community development. According to North-East Centre of the Council of Europe "the methodology of Global Education focuses on supporting active learning and encouraging reflection with active participation of learners and educators." Therefore this project was created to answer to a need that was detected in Estonian society, as well in Eastern Europe and in Europe in general. In youth work specific there are not too many educational opportunities for youth workers that can enable them to bring the global dimension to the youth work and to reach more young people in their communities. This project will offer the opportunity for youth workers and leaders to explore deeper global topics and social exclusion as well to bring these important dimensions in their work and act towards it.
Objective of the training:

• To develop sense of common responsibility for the future of their local communities from a global and social perspective;
• To develop practical skills in street animation and campaigning methods (street theatre, clowning, joggling, flash mobs, animation, etc);
• To stimulate the participants to act as “change animators” in their own organization and regions;
