01-08/09/2017 - Εκπαιδευτικό Πρόγραμμα: Technological Upcycling (Ιταλία)

Technological Upcycling, Training Course, 1-8 September 2017 | Pompei, Italy

Technological upcycling is the practice of transforming or repurposing junk items bound to be thrown away, with the aid of technological gadgets such as microcontrollers, motors and sensors. This can provide the missing link between the environmental and technological approaches to youth work. Thus, technologically-minded youth workers can employ the tools they privilege to tackle environmental issues, whilst environmentally-minded practitioners can integrate new methods in their professional settings.

The youth workers training we are aiming to implement will be an attempt to sensitize participants to new tools and methods in youth work. Its objectives are the following:

• Innovate youth work by introducing new practices based on the combination of environmental education and technology-based activities
• Exchange on the emergence of digital youth work
• Sensitize youth workers to initiatives around DIY and digital culture

Travel costs will be refunded up to a limit of 275e per participant.
Accomodation and food costs will be covered by the coordinating organization.
