Introduction:

UnlockeD is an 8-day training course that aims to introduce and practice an innovative problem-solving methodology and mindset (Design Thinking), which starts and ends with community needs.

We are often faced with wicked problems, challenges, and issues that we feel we cannot overcome. Everything is changing rapidly, the world has become a place where problem-solving has become a must in our everyday lives, especially in youth work.

Although it’s age, design thinking is still considered an innovative method, as not many youth professionals and youth organizations use it in their everyday lives. We created this training journey for like-minded youth workers to explore the power of this mindset and methodology.

 

What to expect:

A lot of hands-on practice, learning by doing in an international community of like-minded youth professionals
