In the days of January 20th to 29th, 2023, the ToTall project took place in Kolin, Czech Republic. Our participants tackled the topics of youth participation and non-formal education. Julia Zaitseva-Kirk and Frederik Kaae Kirk served as trainers for the project, dedicating their efforts to imparting as much knowledge as possible to the participants.
And here are some memories from our participants:
The training trip to Kolin in the Czech Republic on January 21-29, 2023 was an opportunity for participants to learn about different forms of informal education for young people. During the trip, we had the opportunity to meet people from various organisations and institutions and to discuss their approaches to informal education. We also had the chance to discuss the challenges and benefits of such approaches with the professionals involved in the field. Furthermore, we also had the chance to observe and learn different youth activities, as well as take part in creative workshops. Additionally, we had the chance to participate in a number of educational activities to gain a better understanding of how informal education can be used to support young people. The trip was a great opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of the different forms of informal education and how they can be used to support young people.

I learned about different cultures and ways of life, as well as various aspects of European countries. I also had the opportunity to experience different types of cuisine. I made some great friendships with people from all over Europe, and I was able to share my own culture and experiences with them. Overall, it was an amazing experience and I’m so glad I was able to take part in it!
The project was organized with funds from the European Union, under the Erasmus+ programme.
