The Training course about the non formal education – Guess What…it’s non-formal education! – is starting on 11th of July 2011. It will last seven days during which, 40 participants – volunteers, youngsters, trainers, social workers – from 14 European countries (Austria, Bulgaria, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Lithuania, Malta, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Turkey, UK and Italy) will take part in different activities giving their voices to non formal education theme, enriching their own skills and competences in this field.

The project is funded by the Youth in Action programme – Action 4 Youth support systems – sub action 4.3 Training e Networking – and it will involve social workers, trainers, young volunteers (18-68 years old) from European Civil Society in a Training Course on non-formal education, participation, cooperative learning and social inclusion. The participants, who are in touch with youth world, because they are young or because they work with young people in different education fields, during the whole project, will have to use their knowledge, skills and capabilities about non-formal education, and by using this kind of approach they will try to increase the creation of other projects and training course in this field.

The intercultural exchange is also one of the pillars of the meeting. An INTERCULTURAL DINNER, where the participants will delight us with typical meals from their countries and which will be open to local community, will take place in the courtyard of the Carmelitan’s Convent (via Giovanni Grasso 13, Ballarò area) on Wednesday 13th of July at 20.30.
