FRENCH PARTICIPANT CALL for E+ project about young parents, who are often forgotten when we talk about youth work.

But becoming a parent before 25 doesn’t make someone less of a young person. It can mean new challenges, new needs — and new ways of learning, participating and contributing to the community.

💚 Growing Together is a project for youth workers who want to change this.

📍 Drusti, Latvia
📅 23–30 October 2026
👥 26 youth workers

Together, we’ll explore:
✨ tools and methods for working with young parents
✨ ways to create more inclusive youth spaces
✨ how to support young parents’ participation in their communities
✨ learning activities where parents and children can take part together

Are you a youth worker, facilitator, trainer or mentor motivated to empower young parents?

What if the way to prepare for an exam wasn’t to sit still and memorise, but to stand up and perform?

During the April holidays, our Julia ran a theatre and visualisation workshop with teens aged 13 to 14, and gave them an unusual assignment: build a “creative CV” for history’s most notorious dictators, then bring that profile to life on stage.
It’s lovely to see Julia carry forward exactly what we explored together at Clownnection (theatre, clown, and visual facilitation) even deeper into her own practice. The detour worked both ways: approaching the subject sideways gave the teens new frames of reference to hold onto, and performing out loud built a kind of confidence that outlasts any single exam.

What’s a “detour” method that works in your practice? Tell us below 👇

Nine days spent in Masuria taught us something we won't forget: you can't go deep into empathy and non-violent communication in a place that doesn't let you slow down.

That's exactly what “Flying Giraffes” gave colleagues from six countries this spring: hammocks between the pines, a lake through the trees, evenings around the fire, and enough space to try, get things wrong, and stay curious together.

Our Ilaria turned nine days of insight into a set of visual notes: find them in the first comment!

Co-funded by the European Union. Organised with the lovely Fundacja Mudita (Poland).

How can we support young parents to access same opportunities than their young peers?
To this question, we tried to find answers and inspirations through a study-visit in north of France, visiting and interviewing local services for youngsters and parenthood.
We did it and reflected together with youth workers gathered from different countries or Europe, for sharing practices and imaging possible implementations with our own communities.
Here some more reflections by Philip, one of the participants.🤓💪🙏

My reflection after a week in France on inclusion, participation, social support, and why young parents should not remain invisible in…

Slovenia, we're here! has begun.

Clowns. Nature. Connection. An experience who explores the bond between our inner world and the living world outside: people, animals, flora, and beyond. 🤡🌱
A non-formal education training with no PowerPoints, neither classrooms. Just presence, storytelling, play, and the wild as co-educator. A reminder that young people learn most when they feel, move, and belong.
