The idea of the project “Trees that are rooted”
Being youth workers, we observe how the situation among young people in the whole Europe is changing. Some young people are struggling with unemployment, many young people become inactive citizens, or fall into depression. Moreover, the big wave of refugees towards Europe the past couple of years highlights the risk for social exclusion, the human rights violation and the lack of intercultural dialogue. In addition, several reports and researches explain that youth are drawn into violent radicalization in their search for identity, a purpose and a meaningful place in society because they feel injustice and frustration about their exclusion and vulnerability. In this context, our work as youth workers becomes essential to address the situation of youth.
We decided to name our project “Trees that are rooted” with a vision to train youth workers to nurture the young people holistically. This is because we believe that young people need to be rooted firstly in themselves, secondly in their community and last in the whole world, just like the trees do.
This is why our project encloses two activities/training courses for youth workers:
The 1st training course “Trees that are rooted – Nurturing young people’s inner nature – 14-22 March 2020 in Czech Republic focuses young people’s inner nature, self-awareness and self-embracement.
The 2nd training course “Trees that are rooted - Embracing outer nature” – October/November 2020 in Cyprus. This training course advances on the solid “rooting” in the previous training and extending it into the being with others, engaging in meaningful peer relationships, belonging to the world, manifesting the gifts of the inner nature (identity) in the world.

A common dream group (Others)
“A common dream group” is an informal group founded in the Czech Republic in 2018 by people with vast experience in youth work: volunteering, social inclusion, intercultural learning, conflict transformation, youth rights, peace education, teachers training, personal development, using methodologies of experiential learning, non-formal education, embodied learning, theatre of the oppressed, nature based learning, mindfulness, art of hosting, etc.
Our mission is to build a world of win-win-win culture (me-others-Earth), encourage collaboration and sustainability.
We emerged to address the current most burning needs of our universe, the social ones, e.g. xenophobia, violence, and the ecological ones, e.g. climate change. We believe that to find new original solutions to such complex challenges we need to build strong capability of collaboration, and empower this way our creativity and participation. We believe in the power of dreaming together.
We work with young people of different cultures, backgrounds and competencies, providing them with space to connect to self, others and the Earth, space to boost imagination, dream alone and dream together, space to enhance their strengths and increase their ability to be the active creators of the change.
