Profesionalni principi u radu sa mladima iz osetljivih grupa: kreiranje treninga za praktičare omladinskog rada

Abstract

Uvažavajući napore u razvoju omladinskog rada u Republici Srbiji, CEPORA – Centar za pozitivan razvoj dece i omladine, Nacionalna asocijacija praktičara/ki omladinskog rada i tim terenskih radnika pri gradskoj opštini Aarhus iz Danske, sproveli su, u periodu od 2020. do 2022. godine, Erazmus+ projekat strateškog partnerstva „Budi profesionalac: unapređenje prakse omladinskog rada sa mladima sa smanjenim mogućnostima”. Nakon serije sastanaka i aktivnosti za razmenu iskustava, kreiran je dinamičan trening za omladinske radnike, čiju glavnu specifičnost čini upotreba primenjene drame kao alata za učenje. Trening sesije sačinjene su od niza iskustvenih zadataka i scenarija kroz koje učesnici, uz vođstvo trenera, testiraju svoja uverenja, znanja i veštine i jačaju svoje kompetencije primene profesionalnih principa u praksi i reagovanja u problemskim siutacijama kroz iskustveno učenje. Trening je tokom projekta pilotiran sa grupom omladinskih radnika i stručnjaka iz oblasti društveno-humanističkih nauka, a njegova finalna verzija, uključujući i prikaz konteksta omladinskog rada, profesionalnih principa i izazova sa kojima se omladinski radnici susreću u svom radu objavljeni su u publikaciji „Budi profesionalac: trening za primenu profesionalnih principa u omladinskom radu”. Sveobuhvatna publikacija sumira savremena saznanja u ovoj oblasti i predstavlja značajan resurs svima koji sprovode direktan rad sa mladima, a posebno sa mladima iz različitih osetljivih grupa. Rezultati projekta predstavljeni su na događajima u Srbiji i Danskoj, a kreiran je i prateći priručnik za sve učesnike treninga. Materijali nastali u sklopu projekta dostupni su, bez naknade, na sajtu: www.cepora.org.

Acknowledging the efforts in the development of youth work in the Republic of Serbia, CEPORA - Center for Positive Youth Development, the National Association of Youth Work Practitioners and the team of field workers in the municipality of Aarhus from Denmark, conducted, in the period from 2020 to 2022, an Erasmus + strategic partnership project “Act As Professionals Improvement of the youth work practice with young people with fewer opportunities”. After a series of meetings and activities for the exchange of experiences, a dynamic training was created for youth workers, whose main specificity is the use of applied drama as a learning tool. The training sessions consist of a series of experiential tasks and scenarios through which participants, under the guidance of the trainer, test their beliefs, knowledge and skills and strengthen their competencies of applying professional principles in practice and responding to problem situations through experiential learning. During the project, the training was piloted with a group of youth workers and experts in the social sciences and humanities, and its final version, including the context of youth work, professional principles and challenges faced by youth workers in their work were published in the publication “Act as Professionals – Training module for the use of professional principles in youth work”. The comprehensive publication summarizes current knowledge in this field and is a significant resource for all those who conduct direct work with young people, especially with young people from different vulnerable groups. The results of the project were presented at events in Serbia and Denmark, and an accompanying manual was created for all training participants. Materials created as part of the project are available, free of charge, at: www.cepora.org.
