Open Call for the Youth Leader Masterclass
Are you active in a Ukrainian youth organisation? Do you want to train your leadership skills? Apply for our Masterclass program today!
You have until September 12th to apply! It doesn't matter whether you work in a local youth center, a grassroots art project or a leader of a political youth party - leadership and organisational skills are necessary in any civil society initiative.
We have developed a Masterclass prgoram where you can get the necessary experience to make your organisation stronger - and inclrease your own competences and knowledge.
Our Youth Leader Masterclasses increase your expertise in these three core organisational fields:
- Dialogue and conflict resolution
- Communication
- Monitoring and evaluation
The Masterclasses will take place as physical workshops in Kyiv* during the autumn and winter of 2021/22. Alongside a range of skilled persons, you will dive deep into these topics, train your skills and exchange knowledge with peers from other organizations.
The first Masterclass is about conflict resolution and maintaining a healthy dialogue in the organization. What to do when people disagree on how to do things? And how can you deal with conflicts and disagreements when you are all volunteers and are there because you care about the project? Dialogue experts from the Ambassadors for Dialogue will come to Kyiv to guide you through this on September 25th.
