DisConnect 2 Connect

Alarmed by the fact that more and more young
people are addicted to the internet and
smartphones and spend most of their lives in the
virtual world, while neglecting real relationships
with others, we decided to create an exchange
that would address these problems. The times of
the covid 19 pandemic have exacerbated this
problem. Compulsory isolation at home, distance
learning and the lack of contact with peers
made us feel the need to contact other people
and nature.

An opportunity for adventure seekers and nature lovers

Modern youth and the area of youth work in general face many challenges (rising mental health issues, uncertainty about the future, peer pressure, ...). Creating spaces of meaningful connection has never been more important than now. With this training, we would like to invite you to explore the potential of adventure education in youth work. The main aim of this explorative training will be to experience different forms of adventure and to search for lessons and meaning in them for you and your youth work practice. The training is in its third edition, after its pilot in the summer of 2022. It was also presented as a good practice in the international newsletter SangSaeng (from page 25).

CHALLENGE OF ETHICAL OR NOT IN THE DIGITAL ECOSYSTEM OF YOUN

The best example of the widespread and correct use of digitalization emerged during the Covid-19 epidemic and many people were reached through distance education. Distance education, digitalization and digital skills have also increased. In the age of digital transformation, technologies that have entered both our daily lives and the business world have brought many benefits, but also brought risks that should be taken seriously, especially in terms of data security and ethics. We can say that the most vulnerable actors of the digital ecosystem in terms of data security and ethics are individuals. The resources used by individual users and the privacy and protection of their data in the online environment have brought many risks. Therefore, protecting personal data and ensuring online security is of great importance. In corporate data security, data theft causes loss of money and time, and in more advanced cases, causes legal problems and damages the trust in non-governmental organizations that are important in society. Although many institutions and organizations have written statements and reports regarding social media ethics rules, individuals' social media usage ethics and corporate ethics have begun to gain importance as time goes by. This knowledge and skills of individuals, especially young people, need to be increased. In this project, young people are expected to create this knowledge and increase skills. .

LIVNIG WITH AN EARTHQUAKE

Today, it is known that there is nothing that can be done to prevent earthquakes. However, thanks to education,
people can be made more conscious and sensitive about what they can do before, during and after an earthquake,
and what precautions they can take. The aim of this project is to raise awareness of youth workers and the society
with suggestions that can be made to take necessary precautions by determining their knowledge, opinions and
experiences before, during and after a possible earthquake. With the activities determined within the scope of the
project, it is aimed to increase the awareness of youth workers against a possible earthquake.
