The project will equip youth workers, leaders and young adults with methods, tools, and guidance to be able to plan their future and apply it into reality without fear of failure.Reasoning for the project:In a morally supported culture, called a guilt culture, “you know you are good or bad by what your conscience feels. In a shame culture, you know you are good or bad by what your community says about you, by whether it honours or excludes you. In the shame culture, social exclusion makes people feel they are bad”.(Crouch 2016, The shame culture - https://bit.ly/3cJZuB4)The omnipresence of social media has created a new sort of shame culture, since it’s a world of constant display and observation, where success equals inclusion and acceptance. Our internal research found interesting facts in the study “The effect of You Can Do It! Education in six schools on student perceptions of wellbeing, teaching, learning and relationships”, where researchers have developed and implemented a positive psychology program through a “Train the trainer” methods. The results indicated an overall positive effect on students’ attitudes and self-perceptions of different aspects of their wellbeing, fostering motivation and confidence - https://bit.ly/36k6fs9 .General aim of the project:With our project, we aim to prevent/mitigate the feeling of fear regarding the chances of failing any endeavors, through the use of positive psychology. We will foster the learning and implementation of positive psychology to change the view on mistakes in one’s life, helping to cope with the effects of failure.Positive psychology is a scientific study on what makes people thrive and focuses on behaviours that can lead to a more optimized frame of mind to lead to more practical actions, much like cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT). Compared to CBT, positive psychology focuses more on what makes already-functional; it focuses on strengths instead of weaknesses (Martin Sellingman, Father of modern positive psychology - https://bit.ly/PositivePsychologyDef ). Positivity improves life, working place, family and society as a whole.Therefore, our project has a focus on how to handle the problem of preventing fear of failure with a universal approach which can be useful for young adults and youth workers, that will be our target group. Impact on target groupsYouth Workers:Increase their understanding of fear of failure and its effect on young peopleSuccessfully handling difficult situations in correlation with fear of failureLearning how to engage with youth regarding this topicNew teaching methodologies (problem-based learning)Young adults (18+):Realizing the consequences of fear of failure by working on positive thinkingGaining a new perspective and insight when it comes to possible outcomes that may occur when facing fear of failure online.Knowing how to deal with fear of failure after going through specifically designed courses and educational workshops, thus, helping to prevent it and its spread on others.Participants:In the project, we will includeYouth centres: 10 - 2 Per countryYouth workers: 20 - 2 Per youth centreYoung Adults: 50 - 5 Per youth centreCountry mentors: 10 - 2 Per countryNumber of people on LTT: 12 - 2 Per partner

The promotion of well-being in schools may sometimes appear to conflict with other priorities, such as academic standards. Unreasonably high expectations, a regime of constant testing or an overemphasis on the importance of academic performance may actually undermine their welfare. Students need additional non-academic services with a focus on happiness because these have the power to positively remodel all their perceptions for well-being: intellectual, emotional, social, professional, personal as well as their vision for the future.Mastering social-emotional skills has been proven to contribute to the development and use of cognitive functions. It has the potential to be an indispensable tool for teachers in boosting their students' academic performance, solving conflicts and improving their relationship with each other. This shift of focus on happiness will also be important in supporting students in the current crisis caused by Covid-19. They must quickly adapt to constantly changing learning conditions even though they are completely unprepared for them. Identified problem :The challenges in the EU schools have gone far beyond the academic results and the learning standards. Students go to school with different social and emotional burdens and they are showing vulnerability to physical and mental health risks. Insecurity, stress and depression, anxiety, social comparisons, low self-esteem and indifference can lead to deviation, imbalanced growth, the consequences of which should be alarming for our societies. “We as adults have designed educational & school systems for children. But how happy are children within these systems? This question requires us to consider the critical linkage between happiness and our current education system” (UNESCO, 2016). In our fast-moving world, we put great effort in achieving the best of everything but commonly forget about the happiness in our day-to-day life. Needs:Our project is focused on the needs of two target groups: students, aged 13-17 years and high school Teachers. Students receive governmentally approved academic support as part of their compulsory education, but insufficient supplementary services to respond to their social and emotional needs, as it has been proved in the analytical report “Strengthening Social and Emotional Education as a core curricular area across the EU”. Students need a curriculum focused on happiness as it will empower them to take control of all aspects of their lives. It will also aim them with the means to improve their chances for success in the future.Teachers need additional training and support to work effectively in the increasingly multicultural classrooms. Due to a specific mindset and the lack of specific education on the subject they usually focus only on the academic results of students and do not pay enough attention to the importance of their social and emotional skills. Including happiness training in their everyday work will be a valuable tool to help increase students' academic performance, to solve conflicts and other problems in the classroom and to improve their relationship with the children they are entrusted with.<< Objectives >>We expect the following results during the project and upon its completion:Outcomes of the project:- Positive impact on the awareness of teachers regarding the importance of students’ happiness. It has been proven that teachers at schools do not pay enough attention to the soft skills of the students due to different reasons, but the development of the social and emotional skills of the students brings tangible improvement of the academic results and overall well-being. Last recommendations of the European commission is wider attention on the topic from the school systems and improvements on the development of the social and emotional skills of the students as measures. - Improvement of students’ social and emotional skills as mindfulness, self-awareness and awareness about others, empathy towards others (including those who may have different backgrounds), and trustworthiness.- Students focusing on the positive aspects of life and their ability to control how they experience it.Tangible results of the project and their impact:- Happiness training content for students - Upon its completion students will have increased the level of their social and emotional skills. - Convenient and user-friendly materials for the teachers - A Booklet with good practices and Teachers’ Toolkit to support the training and the practical application of the acquired knowledge in teachers’ everyday work with students;- A tailor-made online educational system - Educational Resource with bite-size learning for the students along with digital tools for assessment and training materials for the teachers.Objectives:- A ready-to-use book with the existing good practices in Happiness training at the EU level, so the teachers could start to use some practices instantly- Development of an accessible Happiness training content for social and emotional skills focused on strengthening the foundations of happiness with established experts in the field to help students to acquire the needed skills- Development of a Teacher training toolkit, to be able to educate students on how to find happiness and intrinsic motivation in their day-to-day activities- Implementation of Students training in schools- Development of innovative and accessible Online learning resource<< Implementation >>We are going to implement the following activities:1:Research and gathering of good practices, available options and curricula under the topic of strategies, awareness and education about students well-being.2:Analysing the data collected, listing the key findings to form a consolidated report and analyze the identified gaps. 3:Based on the data collected, Developing structure of Happiness educational content, educational goals, and topics to form the base structure for the development of the program. 4:Cultural adaptation of the educational program is an answer to different needs in every country. 5:Development of Online educational resource.6: Development of Training toolkit.7:LTT:20 teachers will be educated on how to use a prepared training toolkit as well to test it, get feedback and improve it. 8:Pilot students training,800 pilot students to test all available tools and give feedback.9: Finalization of all project results.10: Final dissemination events in each country.<< Results >>We expect the following results during the project and upon its completion:Result 1 - Competence and Skills Matrix (CSM)Result 2 - Happiness training contentResult 3 - Online Educational Resource Result 4 - Teachers’ ToolkitOutcomes of the project:Positive impact on the awareness of teachers regarding the importance of students’ happiness.
