Youth Leadership Program – Training of Trainers

In line with the P2P project plan, a Training of Trainers (ToT) was organised as an important step in the development and further implementation of the Youth Leadership Program. The training took place in Cagliari, Italy, from 23 to 29 March 2025.

The aim of the ToT was to test the developed Youth Leadership Program and prepare partners for its implementation at local level. Representatives of each project partner participated in the activity, tested the proposed educational modules and provided feedback for their further improvement. This process helped refine the activities and strengthen their practical usability in different local contexts.

During the training, participants explored methods for working with young people, facilitating non-formal learning activities and supporting leadership development through sport. They also discussed how to adapt the program to different target groups and local realities, including young beneficiaries involved in Sport Youth Councils (SYC) and Sport Youth Boards (SYB).

The ToT also ensured that participants fully understood the concept, structure and objectives of the Youth Leadership Program. Through practical work, discussions and exchange of experiences, they developed the competences needed to deliver the program later in their own communities.

This activity was an important preparation phase for the local implementation of the Youth Leadership Program. It helped create a common understanding among partners and supported the quality delivery of future local workshops focused on leadership, teamwork, responsibility, inclusion and active youth participation through sport.
