Intercultural Competence for Youth Workers
Research-publishing.net
Intercultural Competence for Youth workers (ICY) was a project co-funded by the European Union Erasmus+ programme that ran for 14 months, from spring 2019 to spring 2020, and involved four organisations from Finland, Spain, Belgium, and the Netherlands. Engaging youth workers and young people with fewer opportunities, the project helped youth workers improve their intercultural ability to create places -- particularly in the context of sports activities -- where young people feel safe, accepted, and not discriminated against. In the context of the Erasmus+ Virtual Exchange (E+VE) initiative, the partners developed a 'trial run' which included an online facilitated dialogue session to test the pedagogy and process of VE, as well as get feedback from the youth involved.
