Harnessing Inspiration from Collaborative Youth Initiatives for Future Empowerment

The hospitality in Poznan, Poland exceeded all expectations. The city was vibrant and welcoming, and both the accommodation and the food made us feel comfortable and welcome. The environment ideally supported the purpose of our meeting: a conference that brought together young people from five different countries to share experiences and good practices in personal development and empowerment through working with youth.

The conference, "BodyYouth Prevention Conference for World Mental Health Day", aimed to present actions organised in each country after our participation in the initial seminar in Spain a few months before. Each group had 15 minutes to present the project they implemented. We presented a seminar that we carried out with school-age children where through exercises with different instruments we worked on strengthening their emotional intelligence. This experience not only allowed us to share our work, but also to draw ideas and inspiration for future initiatives, strengthening our commitment to working with youth."
