OBJECTIVES
- Helping youth workers to better address their relationship with their clients, to successfully negotiate good distance / good proximity with them
- Offering training tools to youth workers to address issues related to relationships, intimacy, sexuality, boundaries with culturally diverse groups.
To reach our objectives we carry out a co-constructive methodological development process to create a set of training materials together with Youth and Youth workers:
- The “Book of situations” will serve youth workers (and other educators) to be able to identify cultural components in conflicts, misunderstandings related to relationships, friendships, intimate relationships (or harassment)
- The “Skills to connect” guidebook will offer youth workers tools to develop their own relational / emotional skills or those of the youth they work with
- The “Book of good proximity” will help youth workers to negotiate appropriate distance and proximity with their clients
- The “Skills for intimacy” will offer training tools for youth workers to address issues related to intimacy with diverse groups of youngsters
- Finally, we will create an online learning tool based on videos: “Lessons of intimacy and relationships” for youth workers to help them integrate the above products into their work practice either by establishing specific trainings or by inserting specific sessions into existing collaboration process.
