About the project
Poznan city center
The activity will take place between August 11th and 19th 2014 in Poznań and will bring together a group of 26 participants.The main theme of the Training Course is to contribute to development of youth policies in the European Union and promotion of innovative educational methods and non-formal education, in this case - LARP (live action role-play games). During the TC, participants will gain new knowledge and skills connected to games and LARPs as a great and one-of-a-kind working method and educational tool, which can be extremely useful when working with young people. The TC will be entirely based on the concept and methods of non-formal education and will allow participants, with help and support of the trainers, to develop their own educational games, which can be later on used in their own work and among members of their local communities. As a result of the TC, we expect to equip the participants in new skills and know-how, which will be extremely useful in their every day work of sharing culture of peace, mutual understanding and respect: this time, not in a game, but in real life.

Available places: 3 participants
