What to Expect:
This training will provide (professional and voluntary) youth workers with practical tools to integrate outdoor education into their youth programs and camps. Over the course of the week, you’ll:
- Challenge your own limits through outdoor activities, including trekking and overnight stays under the stars.
- Learn how to safely and effectively guide children and young people in outdoor experiences with the aim of enabling growth and resilience.
- Explore inclusivity by designing and hosting activities with a local group of individuals with disabilities, gaining hands-on skills for inclusive youth work.
Through this training, participants will:
- Develop technical outdoor skills that can be applied in youth work (e.g., fire-making, navigation, outdoor cooking, basic first aid, backpack management…).
- Gain insights into teamwork and communication in outdoor settings.
- Learn how to use nature as a tool for mental well-being, both for themselves and the young people they work with.
- Be equipped to transfer knowledge by creating an infokit that enables their youth organizations to implement outdoor learning experiences in their own settings.
By immersing themselves in nature, participants will experience first-hand how outdoor education strengthens young people’s resilience, encourages problem-solving, and promotes a healthy body and a strong mind.
The training is designed to provide youth workers with the necessary skills and confidence to integrate outdoor education into their work with children and young people. Providing youth workers with the opportunity to develop competencies and exchange knowledge/experiences on how to design play and meeting spaces for children and young people. By learning to use outdoor environments effectively, youth workers will be able to create engaging, safe, and meaningful play and meeting spaces that enhance the development of young people.
Through this training, we aim to:
- Equip youth workers with essential outdoor skills that theycan apply in youth activities (e.g., fire-making, navigation, out-door cooking, basic first aid, backpack management and more).
- Learn youth workers to design and facilitate outdoor activities and games.
- Promote teamwork and communication by using nature as a setting for group dynamics and leadership development.
- Increase awareness of outdoor education as a tool for inclusion, resilience and personal development.
- Strengthen mental well-being by exploring how nature can help balance stress, improve focus, and enhance group cohesion.
- Ensure the sustainability of the training’s impact by creating an infokit that participants can use to implement outdoor learning in their own organizations.
By reaching these objectives, we not only empower youth workers, but also help young people engage with nature in a meaningful way, fostering a sense of adventure, self-confidence, and well-being.
