I dig STEM 4 Youthwork

Description

The general objective of the I dig STEM 4 Youthwork project is to promote inclusivity and diversity in youth education and enhance the quality and innovation of youth work by integrating STEM.

Specific Objective 1:
To empower and sensitize youth workers in applying experiential methodologies and STEAM activities in youth work through innovative pedagogical practices and quality digital content.
Specific Objective 2:
To increase awareness of innovative methodologies in utilizing STEAM topics for youth work and encourage the integration of a growth
mindset among youth workers.
Specific Objective 3:
To establish a sustainable online platform for exchange and support among youth workers who integrate (or wish to integrate) STEAM and digital content into their practice.

Working on the stated objectives will guide participants towards achieving key priorities—enhancing inclusion and diversity in youth education, improving the quality, innovation, and recognition of youth work, and exploring the potential of STEAM combined with digital tools to empower personal capacities and competencies. Through activities aimed at these objectives, the project will contribute to multidisciplinary education of youth work professionals, foster their interest in STEAM fields, and highlight the exceptional opportunities these contents provide when implemented in youth work—not only for knowledge acquisition but also for enhancing personal capital. Indirectly, it will also positively impact the youth groups with whom the participants work. Project is co-funded by Erasmus + program.
