The “Empowering Youth Workers – European & Political Dimension” e-learning course aims to provide youth workers with space and time to reflect on the European and political dimensions of youth work. Through online training modules, participants will explore how youth work connects with democracy, participation, citizenship, European values, and social engagement.

The “The Polarities of Democracy: Learn from the Founder – Live Webinar with Dr William Benet” e-learning activity introduces participants to the Polarities of Democracy framework, which explores key tensions within democratic systems such as freedom vs. authority or participation vs. representation. Participants will learn how to apply polarity thinking to better understand and manage complex societal challenges in youth work and civic engagement contexts.

This e-learning session aims to support participants in reflecting on leadership, organisational strategy, and internal culture within their organisations. It invites participants to critically assess whether their organisation needs a strategy, how effective their current approach is, and how leadership practices shape organisational development.
