Meeting with the educators – training course in Poland!

In the second week of August, as part of the Startnow + project, we hosted training course for teachers and educators from Poland and Norway, which took place in Milówka, Poland. 

The meeting consisted of workshop sessions devoted to non-formal education, health education and the practical application of educational modules created under the StartNow + project.

In addition, participants willingly shared information about the Norwegian and Polish education system, talked about the well-being of students and teachers, and had the opportunity to play the role of facilitators and conduct classes of their choice based on the module tool and receive feedback.

The group also took part in a city game in Bielsko-Biała and a Polish-Norwegian evening, thanks to which we learned a lot of interesting facts about our countries.

We hope that the training was a good opportunity for the participants to exchange good practices, network and learn about the methods that will soon be used by them in classes with children and youth.

3rd meeting, this time in Norway!

We had a great pleasure to meet again, this time in Oslo. It gave us the opportunity to see how our partner lives and work in the capital of Norway (3-5/8/21). We met together in the FURIM’s office where we have discussed the project’s issues, especially the upcoming training course in Poland and finalize work on modules. We also talked about project’s promotion and visualization.

It was also the time for integration and explore the Scandinavian culture. We have visited the sport center Holmenkollen and taste a little bit of Norwegian cuisine.

We would like to thank our partners for hosting Us and show Us how slow life can be even if you live in a big city like Oslo.

We finally met

After a long time of remote work on the StartNow + project, the time has come to unfreeze working meetings of project groups. The opening up Norway made it possible for the Norwegians to come to Poland. This time we met in Opole (6-8/07/2021), the home town of the HOPP association.

What were we doing for 2 days?

During the 2 days of the meeting, we summarized our joint achievements, including the educational cards that we have prepared. A set of 10 new modules is being finalized, so you will soon learn about the topics that we have chosen. We based it on analyzes as important for young people.

What’s next?

We are also finishing work on child welfare education, a set of rules that, through implementation, will improve the quality of educational processes. We have another meeting ahead of us and further work on the results. During the next meeting, this time in Oslo, we will focus on the upcoming international training for educators and the release of the mobile application.
