Yesterday 20/03/2025 JUMP met 3 of the 5 partners of the project MINDFUL YOUTH (Turkey, Slovakia and Estonia) and this zoom appointment is one of the last ones of this long term common learning path.
A year ago we started to reflect and discover about Mental Health of Youth. Before we didn’t think it was so necessary.
The digital era, going so fast, brought for sure innovation, new resources, opportunities, shining colours but also the “dark web” and its dangers. It’s not enough to be more media literate as we used to say. New emotional needs are emerging.
A huge impact on generations before ours affected many youngsters who are living real isolation, addiction, crimes or “suicides” and risk to take the wrong way.
With our project we can’t solve these problems but talk about it, as “youth and social workers” and face what happens, it’s necessary. Mindful Youth as a project is coming to an end. With partners we organized Dissemination Events, training and other activities – new are about to be developed in the next few days.
We have a fantastic blog on our official website https://staymindful.eu/mindful-youth-blog/ with 24 (actual number) interesting articles. More are in progress.
JUMP is bringing a new MINDFUL APPROACH to real problems affecting our society in a joyful and playful way, using Non Formal and Outdoor Education, Mindfulness practices and Dialogue.
Stay tuned and let’s continue with MINDFUL YOUTH as a permanent laboratory for our actual young generations.
