3rd European Academy on Youth Work – Webinar 3: Looking Forward, Together
E-learning
12 September 2024 | online, Slovenia
After two webinars and a very lively residential EAYW event in May, get ready for the final online meeting where we will share key insights and strategies to move towards the future, together. Everyone interested in the future of youth work is welcome.
In the European Academy on Youth, we want to support the professional development of youth workers and other professionals in youth work practice, policy and research.
For this reason, we are excited to invite you to the last webinar of our series of three webinars on the topic of “Emerging trends and developments and their impact on youth work in Europe”. The webinars are organised as part of the 3rd European Academy on Youth Work.
The main questions that the 3rd EAYW has been exploring are:
- Which emerging trends and developments can we expect to have an impact on youth work?
- What will youth work look like in the future?
- How can we get ready for futures thinking?
- How can we act, plan and envision for a future of youth work we don’t know?
The webinars are 2-hour long dynamic online sessions where you will explore aspects related to futures thinking in youth work with other colleagues from different parts of Europe. During these sessions you can expect: short and inspiring inputs by experts and interesting conversations with colleagues from other countries.
Our third and last webinar will take place on 12 September 2024, from 10:00 – 12:00 CET.
This webinar will focus on “Looking Forward, Together”.
