Last week we had our 4th Webinar! 🎉

Together with our youth workers, we explored how social hackathons can become powerful spaces for young people to develop essential soft skills.

We reflected on which soft skills can be strengthened through these experiences from teamwork and communication to creativity, critical thinking, adaptability, and problem-solving and how we, as youth workers, can intentionally support this development.

Through the Hacktive Methodology, we are diving deeper into what truly lies behind a social hackathon, exploring it at 360°:
✨ the learning process
✨ the group dynamics
✨ the facilitation strategies
✨ and the real impact on young people’s personal and professional growth

We still have a lot of work to do, so stay tuned 😎
