What is the project about?
In today's rapidly evolving landscape, young people confront an intricate tapestry of challenges and opportunities. This Professional Development Activity (PDA) will unite youths from various countries to arm them with the skills, adaptability, and innovative thinking essential for entrepreneurial success. Our vehicle for this transformation is improvisational education, drawing both from theater and specialized improvisation techniques.
Our project aims to not only empower young participants but also to instill a proactive entrepreneurial spirit. We do this through an array of non-formal, improvisational educational methods that are engaging and hands-on.
Objectives of the project:
Specific objectives of this initiative include:
Cultivating essential competencies and social skills through applied improvisation, designed to foster an entrepreneurial mindset.
Demystifying the concept of improvisation, positioning it as both a tool for personal development and a potent methodology for youth engagement.
Offering a foundational understanding and hands-on experience in social entrepreneurship.
Creating a collaborative environment where participants can take initiative and share best practices, all while focusing on non-traditional educational methods.
By integrating non-formal educational strategies with improvisational techniques like theater and role-playing, we aim to offer a comprehensive, experiential learning journey.
