Educational workshop “An Idea as a Seed of Success”

February 25, 2022

You've heard the word "project" but don't know what it truly means. Are you interested in how a project is written? Would you like to organize something fun in your school or community but don't know where to get funding for it? Don't worry – the educational workshop "Idea as a Seed of Success" offered by Anne Youth Center helps find answers to project-related questions.

At the beginning of the year, the workshop "Idea as a Seed of Success" has actively resumed, offering young people aged 11-19 an introduction to the world of projects. During the workshop, young people learn what a project is and how to identify one, practice brainstorming, and go through writing a sample project. Thus, by the end of the workshop, an initial idea becomes a more concrete plan that can be further developed and implemented as a project after the workshop.
Students from Raatuse School who participated in the workshops in February highlighted that the workshop was interesting and several ideas were conceived. According to the teacher, the workshops were interesting and inspiring, offering students various thoughts. The teacher also pointed out that the "Idea as a Seed of Success" workshop is definitely a great help in writing projects.

If you are interested and would like to complete a workshop with your class or group, please contact us. The size of one group could be 15-25 young people. If desired, within Tartu, we can also come to the location where young people usually spend their time.
