This project has been funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union (Project N. 2023-2-EE01-KA210-YOU-000168327)
Coordinator : EESTI VAIMUPUUDEGA INIMESTE TUGILIIT

Aim of our project, “YOUTH BUILD” is to provide comprehensive psychosocial support to young people in vulnerable communities/ situations, equipping them with the tools and mindset necessary to navigate and overcome adversity. By focusing on their psychological and social well-being, we aim to foster resilience, enhance self-esteem, and promote positive mental health outcomes among the youth.
Our aim will be achieved through implementing a set of objectives and results, as follows:

  • to assess the psychosocial resilience levels of youth in vulnerable communities using the Resilience Assessment Compass.
  • to develop and utilize Strengths-Based Coaching Cards. These interactive cards will promote a strengths-based approach, encouraging youth to recognize and leverage their inherent strengths to overcome challenges.
  • to deliver comprehensive psychosocial support to youth in vulnerable communities. This includes create online resources, carrying out internal workshops and support networks to enhance their coping skills, emotional intelligence, and problem- solving abilities.
  • to encourage community engagement and youth leadership. We will facilitate opportunities for young individuals to actively participate in decision-making processes, community projects, and advocacy initiatives.
  • to provide guidelines for empowering youth to become peer mentors and leaders within their communities.

Results:

  • Resilience Assessment Compass: A comprehensive assessment tool to identify individual strengths, needs, and areas for growth in youth.
  • Strengths-Based Coaching Cards: Allows youth workers to facilitate meaningful conversations and empower youth by focusing on their existing capabilities.
  • Resilience Champions digital platform: A platform for identifying and nurturing resilience champions among vulnerable youth.
  • 30 youth workers & volunteers compass and cards in their daily work (piloting).
  • 2 online training sessions for youth workers and volunteers on implementing the results effectively.
