Youth workers from partner countries have reported that they often face high levels of stress due to the emotional demands of their roles and the complex challenges young people bring to their attention. These stressors lead to burnout, reduced effectiveness, and, ultimately, a diminished ability to support young people. It was mentioned that it is needed for youth workers to build resilience, enhance emotional well-being, and maintain a healthy work-life balance.

The team goes in detail to work on the project which promote Youth workers self care and well-being.

Anti-Bullying Day is observed annually every May 4. It is a day when the world pledges to end bullying in schools.

History of Anti-Bullying Day

The idea for Anti-Bullying Day came from David Shepherd and Travis Price in Nova Scotia, Canada. In 2007, the two bought and distributed 50 pink shirts to show their support for Jadrien Cota. He is a male student who was viciously bullied on the first day of school for wearing a pink shirt. Since then, people have worn pink, purple, or blue shirts to stand up against bullying.

Bullying exists wherever there are groups of people. Sometimes presenting itself as ‘teasing’ or ‘jokes,’ bullying is rampant since there is always an individual with the need to assert dominance. Bullies belittle people based on their looks, race, gender, sexuality, or religion. Sometimes, they don’t need a reason to accept a person’s differences. Statistics show that at least 71% of students have been victims of bullying in school. The explosion of the internet makes it extra challenging. No longer confined to schoolyards, bullying today comes directly to people’s homes through social media, websites, and devices.

On this day, schools everywhere stand up against bullying. The holiday can have varying dates and names depending on the location. But the aim is universal, it is to prevent bullying and support kids who need help. The United Nations has designated May 4 as Anti-Bullying Day. A day that reminds us to defend anyone who faces victimization or harassment regardless of race, gender, or age.

Let’s be green as much as possible. We encourage you not to take the plane, even if this takes more time and might take extra effort. Of course we know it is not always
possible depending on from where you are travelling, the time your studies/ job/
everyday life gives you etc.
However: Planes are massively responsible for the climate crisis and through our
projects we would like to contribute to a more sustainable planet, not to a less
sustainable one. Compare the emissions that your journey emits by train, car or plane:

To come today in this meeting and wearing a pink shirt on this day sends a strong message to them that others care. Often, the simple act of wearing a shirt can start conversations – conversations can be a big step towards healing and helping!

how can one practice green travelling? Green travelling can be considered as an individual's responsibility to travel by giving back to nature and the local community of the target destination.

When travelling, the first issue is the choice of transportation. Although flying is usually the fastest and the cheapest option, it is an unsustainable way of travelling. To green travel, the first thing you can do is to avoid domestic flights in the first place. If you are travelling within Europe, it is best to use the train to transport. If you do not have such an option or you are travelling overseas, try to use direct flights as the takeoffs and landings create most of an aeroplane’s carbon emissions. You can also use airlines that offer carbon offset programs for a greener journey.  In terms of getting around once you're at your destination, try to visit places by using an electric car, a bike, a scooter, or even better: on foot.

Lift ME UP -YOUTH WORKERS FOR PREVENTION OF BULLYING

# data[].attributes.body
The project was a very good experience for me, I met professionals working with young people who have difficulties in their life; sharing information and experiences and good practices brought us more skills and knowledge to work with young people. We have developed new competencies. I have developed my language skills, skills of listening and presenting, leadership and participation skills. Useful information of management (time/project/program.); European values and diversity, sustainability; the importance of youth health, inclusion, and their motivation and more… I have daily contact with young people who come from different backgrounds; the experience I got is very useful for my daily work. It gives me more competencies, self confidence to support them when they need it or even if I recognize any signs of bullying or violence. What is very important: we can achieve everything by combining and uniting all the community (school -youth work- parents) to stand up against bullying.  The project was organized professionally. We had skilled trainers. Everything was well planned and on time. The participants were active and full of new ideas. The location was very nice, peaceful, also inside the group was friendly atmosphere. The host group was helpful and kind.
