Storytelling pre Európu
▶Summary
Background In the years 2015-2016, EDUMA created an innovative, timeless and inspiring tool Online Living Library, which uses storytelling to support and develop the competencies of young people in various sectors of education. The portal contains video statements of inspiring young people and youth workers overcoming obstacles in society and methodologies for working with the videos, webinars for working with storytelling and low-motivated groups of children, youth and their parents, workshops on using the Online Living Library in non-formal education and in the school environment . The portal is primarily used by youth workers, teachers, university students, employees of the HR departments of companies and endowment funds. As a result of the COVID19 pandemic, interest in online forms of development and education has increased, increasing the number of users of the tool to more than 1,800 unique users. The growth of users and their feedback pointed to new challenges that need to be reflected in the innovation of the portal with new tools, new methodologies, integrated applications for group work in the online environment. By using the portal in youth, out-of-school and school environments, wide groups of users strengthen their language, digital, social and civic competences. By connecting sectors and pointing to the use of story work in various contexts, forms, target groups, we strengthen the permeability of non-formal and formal education and better preparation of young people for the labor market. The project is exceptional for the plasticity of the use and contribution of the outputs of project activities for various sectors.
