We are happy to announce the start of the BESTRONG project! 
The BESTRONG project, titled “Upgrading youth work practices for building resilient and inclusive societies through a psycho-social approach”, has officially begun!
We successfully kicked off this new Erasmus+ adventure with a kick-off meeting that brought all partners together. It was a crucial moment to present in detail the objectives and the various activities that we will carry out over the next 24 months.
Representatives from the following organisations participated in the meeting:
Co.s.san (Italy – Coordinator)
Citizensact (Cyprus)The main goal of BESTRONG is to build resilient communities by improving the quality and innovation of youth work. We will focus on supporting young people with migrant backgrounds in integrating into host communities, while also strengthening young people from host countries so they can act as mentors in a peer-to-peer approach. A crucial focus will be placed on the mental and psycho-social well-being of young people.
During the meeting, we delved into the key activities, including:
Development of a validated Capacity Building programme for youth workers Creation of an innovative Toolkit with digital tools like the QR Code Mindscape Game and interactive activities Implementation of the BESTRONG Community Programme atthe transnational and national levels Development of an interactive e-learning portal to share resources and connect workers and young peopleWe are full of energy and motivation for this transnational collaboration that will allow us to tackle current challenges and promote inclusion, empathy, and fundamental EU values such as solidarity and respect.
Stay tuned for updates on this exciting journey!
