Learning to navigate chaos!

Chiara, Mattia, Italy, Age 25, 22

They have been very tiring but enriching days: words cannot fully express what this project has meant to us.

Last May we took part in a project named “Navigating Chaos 2.0”, in the framework of the Erasmus+ programme - Key Action 1 - Mobility projects for youth workers. It took place near Sofia, in the Bulgarian Red Cross training center, a magical place surrounded by nature. 

The aim of the project was to help us improve our way of facing and navigating chaotic situations -which can be found at work, in social life or within ourselves – through the use of tools and activities including effective communication, problem-solving, decision-making, leadership and team building. 

We found ourselves returning to our everyday reality somewhat puzzled, but certainly more aware of ourselves and others around us.

The project was completely funded by Erasmus+ and we met amazing people from Bulgaria, Greece, Spain, Portugal, Poland, Latvia, Romania and Serbia.

We stayed only nine days but it felt like a month. They have been very tiring but enriching days and words cannot fully express what this project has meant to us. We can simply say that it challenged, tested, helped, filled and emptied us, opening us up to new points of view.

We will never forget the practical lessons, the team games, the dynamics and the relationships we managed to create.

This is the right experience for you if you are looking for something new that will make you take one or more steps outside your comfort zone, and at the same time make you have fun and learn.
