❗️What Is This Training About?
Develop practical skills to support young people facing complex challenges. This training combines safeguarding, trauma-informed, and solution-focused approaches to promote safety, wellbeing, participation, and resilience.
🏘️ How Erasmus+ youth projects create lasting change in local communities. The impact of Erasmus+ goes far beyond the individuals who participate. Local communities, host organisations, and even entire neighbourhoods are shaped by the projects that take place within them. This article explores the broader social impact of Erasmus+ youth exchanges — from building intercultural understanding to empowering grassroots organisations — and makes a compelling case for why these projects matter beyond the personal level. 👉 https://youthworkshub.org/3595/
ℹ️ Description About The Opportunity
This training course is designed for experienced youth workers, educators, trainers, and other helping professionals who work with young people experiencing increased vulnerability and complex life challenges.
The course focuses on strengthening participants' capacity to create safer, more inclusive, and supportive environments by integrating three complementary approaches: safeguarding, trauma-informed practice, and solution-focused approaches.
We define highly vulnerable young people as those facing at least two significant life challenges, with at least one being chronic, systemic, or particularly difficult to overcome. These challenges may include poverty, abuse, discrimination, family instability, mental health difficulties, neglect, violence, or social exclusion. Supporting these young people requires approaches that recognise the impact of adversity while promoting safety, empowerment, participation, and positive development.
Throughout the training, participants will explore:
the principles of safeguarding and child protection;
risk assessment and creating safer organisational practices;
codes of conduct and ethical decision-making;
trauma-informed approaches and the impact of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs);
psychological first aid and responding to distress;
solution-focused approaches that build on strengths, resilience, and young people's existing resources.
The programme combines theory with practical tools, reflection, experiential learning, and peer exchange, enabling participants to transfer their learning directly into their everyday practice.
The final two days of the programme will take place as part of the Source Conference in Hatvan, where participants will join workshops and learning sessions alongside youth workers, trainers, educators, and other professionals from across Europe. The conference offers an inspiring space for sharing experiences, exchanging good practices, exploring current challenges in youth work, and building new international partnerships. Participants will engage with topics such as youth participation, inclusion, wellbeing, experiential learning, and innovative approaches to supporting young people in diverse contexts.

Organiser:
Élményakadémia KHE (Youth NGO)
Élményakadémia was founded in 2005 by 12 young volunteers, who - based on their personal experiences - believed that non-formal education is an essential tool for the development of youth. Our mission is to inspire, empower and support youth to take responsibility for their lives and their communities. Our target groups are teenagers, young adults, and volunteers or professionals who are working with them. We put special emphasis to reach and involve youth workers and trainers escorting such programmes and eager to refresh themselves with new competencies; and youth with fewer opportunities: those dropping out of the school system, unemployed, living in geographically and socially disadvantaged regions.
The objective of the organization is to provide opportunities for various non-formal educational activities to develop social and personal skills, resulting in altered attitudes and behaviour. Our main thematic focuses are: personal and social participation of youth and inclusion. We foresee reaching them by running experience-based non-formal educational activities resulting in the development of transversal competencies.

Travel reimbursement
Travel costs will be reimbursed according to programme rules.
Please keep in mind that only direct travel costs between your home location and the venue of the event can be reimbursed. Private travelling, detours or holiday-related trips cannot be financed through the grant, and taxi or first-class tickets are unfortunately not eligible for reimbursement. Travel costs can only be covered for the cheapest reasonable means of transport, and we kindly ask you to consider eco-friendly travel options whenever possible.
The allocated travel budget is calculated according to the European Commission’s official Distance Calculator.
https://erasmus-plus.ec.europa.eu/resources-and-tools/distance-calculator
After checking the distance between your place of residence and the venue, you can determine the maximum amount available for your travel. The travel budget categories are as follows: for distances between 10–99 km the maximum is 28 EUR per person, and 56 EUR in case of green travel; for 100–499 km the maximum is 211 EUR per person, or 285 EUR for green travel; for 500–1999 km the maximum is 309 EUR per person, or 417 EUR for green travel; for 2000–2999 km the maximum is 395 EUR per person, or 535 EUR for green travel; for 3000–3999 km the maximum is 580 EUR per person, or 785 EUR for green travel. For distances between 4000–7999 km the maximum budget is 1188 EUR per person, and for 8000 km or more it is 1735 EUR per person. Travel costs will be reimbursed up to 100% as long as they remain within the allocated budget.
You are entitled to reimbursement only if you provide all original proof of travel: invoices or bills, the tickets themselves, and, in case of flights, the boarding passes as well. Please note that without both the receipt and the corresponding ticket, we are not able to reimburse any expenses. Before booking your travel, please send your planned itinerary to Zsofi Racz at zsofi.racz@elmenyakademia.hu for approval. Reimbursement will be made via bank transfer to your sending organisation once all required travel documents have been received; they will then transfer the amount to the participants.
Green travel refers to low-emission and shared forms of transportation such as travelling by bus, train, or car sharing (with at least two or more passengers in the same car). If you plan to travel using green options, please inform us in advance so that the appropriate budget category can be applied.
