Last weekend, the work with the 2nd group of participants was completed, for which training was organized in 2 modules; in the field of Basic Life Skills and Employability Skills, which aims to facilitate the integration of young women into the labor market. The training was realized within the project “Empowerment of young women – Beginning of change”.

In addition to training, the participants of the project will be provided psychotherapy, vocational trainings, visits to companies,… all in accordance with their development plans and needs.

Reed some of the statements of our participants which show that our encounters are often more than just a training;

“I acquired a lot of knowledge from the workshops. I am very grateful that I had the opportunity to attend it and I am glad that I was part of this training. There was no lack of support and love in the group. Having professional help from the trainers is something I would particularly like to mention, as well as their selfless advocacy for each of us.”

“I am very satisfied with my progress through this training. The topics covered are very useful.”

“I am full of positive impressions and I look forward to continuation of the project. Great praise for the quality of work and the pleasant and positive atmosphere!”

“Participation brought me a lot of knowledge that I’m already applying and that is already bringing results.”

“I leave this training full of energy and enthusiasm. The entire organization of the education was designed in the best possible way, each trainer made their own special, positive contribution – through the topics we covered as well as their contribution on the often, unconscious level.”

“Time best spent.”

“I will certainly be involved in other activities in the future, and this was just the initial step towards changes and working on myself. I’m glad you exist.”

“A very interesting, useful and instructive project that opened new perspectives on my personality, life skills and personal ability to deal with challenges. It helped me to better understand myself, my needs and feelings. It also helped me to open up and break down the “wall” that I have built, hurt by the actions of many people, to protect myself. I learned to talk about my feelings and share them with others, without hesitation or fear. I may not have started to look at the world with different eyes, but at least I have taken the first step in overcoming my problems. I can say that I have improved my knowledge a lot and learned a lot of useful things which I didn’t know until now, and which will help me. And of course, great praise for the trainers, they were actually our mentors. I think that a quality lecture depends a lot on quality and interesting lecturers/trainers, which they certainly are.”
