Local Workshops of the Youth Leadership Program

After the international Training of Trainers in Cagliari, partners implemented local workshops of the Youth Leadership Program in their own countries from April to October 2025. In each participating country, three local workshops were organised in cooperation between project partner organisations and sport clubs, associations or federations.

The workshops included sport-based, practical and theoretical activities using non-formal learning methods. Young people had the opportunity to test different activities from the Youth Leadership Program and work on the development of leadership skills, teamwork, communication, responsibility, social awareness and active participation.

Through these workshops, participants were encouraged to reflect on their own role in their teams, organisations and communities. They explored how sport can support personal development, strengthen self-confidence and create space for young people to become more involved in community and civic life.

The local workshops helped bring the Youth Leadership Program closer to young people in the partner countries. They also created safe, supportive and interactive learning environments where young people could practise leadership, cooperate with others and better understand how they can contribute to positive change through sport.
