Mamyfu - Making my future

This blog is about activities, events and experiences about a project which joins up young people and youth workers from Estonia, Latvia and Finland.

Perspective of student on MAMUFY participants from Latvia

“I am a 1st year student of social work. Before I started studying, I spent several years outside Latvia, traveling, volunteering and gaining various experiences. As part of my studies, I chose to do my internship at the Resilience Center, because when I first heard about this organization, I was fascinated by the vision, mission, and goals of this center, which are in line with my ideas.!

Come with your own idea

Idea of youth participation has led to workshops “Come with your own idea”, where young people have the opportunity to write projects and implement various ideas both individually and in groups. Young people who are involved in the such kind of workshop admitted that workshops have given them opportunity to learn, gain new experiences and make friends. Participating in Making my future project has awoke the want to create new projects for some of the participants.

Participation of youth at risks

Young people are always involved in various initiatives, programs and projects based on the resilience approach. It is always a challenge to create a place what offers possibilities. By participating in various events, camps and projects organized by the Resilience center, young people are given the opportunity to get to know themselves, their abilities and talents better. It's also great opportunity to meet new people, make friends and spend your free time usefully.
