From 15–21 March 2026, Latvia hosted the Erasmus+ Youth Workers Mobility “Future Thinking – Present Action in Youth Work.” Youth workers, mentors, educators, and facilitators from Latvia, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania, Spain, and
France gathered to discuss, learn, and practice topics related to future thinking.
The program was designed to equip youth workers and young people with both theoretical knowledge and practical tools to develop future‑thinking skills and explore future scenarios
in an engaging way. Throughout the week, participants took part in a rich learning process that combined theory, practice, creativity, and non‑formal education.
The training was based on the methodology of the Erasmus+ KA2 project FUTURLANDS, introducing and applying tools developed within the project, such as the Future Thinking
Guidelines, One page posters, the learning platform www.projecthows.com, and the educational game “Steps from the Future.” The week concluded with participants preparing messages for young people worldwide and shaping concrete ideas they will continue developing in their local communities. This mobility was not only a learning experience but also a space for international cooperation, cultural exchange, and building a community of future‑minded youth workers ready to act today for a better tomorrow.
The project was hosted by the Baltic Regional Fund from Latvia. Project "Future Thinking – Present Action in Youth Work" No. 2025-1- LV02-KA151-YOU-000300655 is funded by the European Union.
