Description

Training Course

7-11 November 2022 | Konstancin-Jeziorna, Warsaw, Poland

The training course will provide participants with practical psychological and coaching tools to support the mental wellness and resilience of ESC volunteers and themselves.

Why this Training Course?

Mental health problems among young people have increased dramatically over the years- some research shows that almost 20% of young Europeans experience mental health disorders among which depression and anxiety are the most common ones.

Therefore, there is a strong need to provide practical tools for people working with volunteers to accompany them in building a safe environment that would be supporting mental wellness during the projects.

The training course aims to provide participants with practical psychological and coaching tools to support the mental wellness and resilience of ESC volunteers.
