Yarim’s pilot training in Spain

From the end of October to the beginning of December 2018, the city of Terrassa (close to Barcelona) hold Yarim’s pilot training addressed to social mediators and youth workers. Organized by CEPS, Yarim’s Spanish partner, these long and fructuous sessions helped the assistants to going deep into some topics related to youth, faith, identity and plurality management. The contents presented were based on the Units developed by Yarim, a module online course that will be published on July 2019.
One of the questions more discussed was islam due to the interest of the participants, who use to work with a huge number of Muslim youth.
This training had also the support of Terrassa municipality, who facilitated the space and also encouraged the staff to participate in these sessions. Overall, there were more than 20 participants in each session, and the feedback was very positive. One of the main highlights was that youth workers need more training
on religious diversity.
