Jak vyjet skrze program pro mladé podnikatele? A jaké další možnosti nabízí program Erasmus + mladým? Na tyto otázky jsme odpovídali na Střední průmyslové škole v Přerově.

In mid-February, we hosted a project meeting for the BODY LIBERATION project, with the main goal of completing the research phase and moving to the creative phase.
This part will include creating new activities addressing issues linked to the body, negative stereotypes, and ways that lead to becoming more self-confident and able to raise a voice when facing various triggers, including body-shaming comments.
Besides training materials, the creative part will also include work on supporting materials that will be available to anyone wishing to learn more about body-related issues and concepts, as well as tips on handling a variety of situations.
The meeting was organized within the project ‘Body Liberation for Gender Equality’, 2025-1-LV02-KA210-YOU-000352192 realized with the support of the Erasmus+ Programme.
The project brings together organisations ‘Flourish‘, Latvia, ‘WAVES’, Cyprus and ‘Mission: Reconnect’, Czechia.
“Hopefully, yes.” “We need to do more to stay relevant for young people joining our activities.” “We belong to GEN Z and GEN Alpha and know what they need.”
One question and three possible answers. What would be your answers as youth workers, leaders? Can you take a moment and reflect if and how you are following the trends and changes all around?
We took the moment, and in January we met with a group of youth workers and leaders in Czechia to reflect on the needs and interests of GEN Z and GEN Alpha, with the simple goals – to explore if our youth work methods are still relevant or outdated, to discuss the similarities or differences that the representatives of these generations share, as well as to discuss environmental issues that seem to be important for young people belonging to GEN Z.
Moreover, we also visited the school GEEK in Brno and had the opportunity to question our approach towards education and why it is triggering for us when school does not look like it did back in our childhood.
Furthermore, we also took a look at the methods and tools that we use and reflected on things that have changed. Do we use inclusive language? Are we using interactive methods? What are the things that are really outdated?
We did not have clear answers to all the questions that we asked; nevertheless, we got inspiration and a so much-needed moment for reflection.
The activity was realized within the project ‘Youth TOOLS Residencies‘, 2025-1-CZ01-KA153-YOU-000297555 focused on exploring the needs of GEN Z and GEN Alpha and developing the competencies of youth workers to address the needs of young people representing these generations.
The project is realized with the support of the Erasmus + Programme and brings together youth workers from Czechia, Bulgaria, Latvia, Poland, Hungary, France and North Macedonia.
