ACT-YOU Talk - The Training Course in Albania (Part 2)
Welcome to part 2 of our ACT-YOU Talk, where we take you behind the scenes of the ACT-YOU training course in Durres, Albania!
ACT-YOU is an Erasmus+ project focused on making youth work more inclusive and accessible for young people with fewer opportunities. The study visit brought together youth workers and partners from across Europe to exchange practices, visit local organisations, and reflect on how to better support diverse youth communities.
Throughout the training in Albania, we collected the sounds of our interactions and the impressions of participants.
On this episode, guided by the insights of Youssri and Silviu, we dive into the second part of the training course, through the memories of Harold, who tells us more about Tirana, Zori, who explains us how a labyrinth theatre activity works, and Gabi, who walks us through the last day.
