The online training program "Young Trainee 3:Youth (in) Action” has finished with unceasing interest and vivid interest. The participants in the third edition completed their theoretical training at the end of 2021 and are now ready to embark on the world of youth work.

Again, the guide to this adventure was the handbook on digital media literacy, created by the teams of Youth Center Plovdiv, Youth Center - Vratsa / Youth Center - Vratsa, Youth Center - Dobrich, International Youth Center - Stara Zagora and partners - Foundation "Applied Research and Communications "and Norsensus Mediaforum.

The trainees explored topics such as volunteering, creative thinking, entrepreneurship, emotional intelligence, online safety and more. Through them, they were able to see the world from another angle, identify and analyze community problems they face every day. The skills acquired during the program are a product of the overall experience. The participants worked together in a team, developed their critical thinking, learned how to visually present ideas and find alternative solutions. One of the ideas of the trainees was the creation of an eco-poster aimed at attracting like-minded people to their causes.

The official award ceremony for the first part of the program was at the premiere of the youth initiative-musical "The Little Match Girl". The evening ended with many smiles and impatience for the next events, which will engage new trainees. In the gallery we share the digital posters made by the four teams of trainees during the activity "My Eco World".

The registration for "Youth (in) Action" will start very soon, in which the trainees from the third edition of the program will play the role of assistant trainers. The activity is implemented as part of the project "Youth Center Plovdiv - a Powerful Factor for Local Development" under the program "Local Development, Poverty Reduction and Improved Inclusion of Vulnerable Groups", funded by the Financial Mechanism of the European Economic Area 2014 - 2021.
