OPEN CALL FOR TRAINERS TO CONDUCT WORKSHOPS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE ON WELL-BEING WHILE WORKING FROM HOME

The 4th ASEF Young Leaders Summit focuses on ‘Sustainable Development in a post-COVID-19 World’ and incorporates 3 spheres for youth leadership: 1) self-leadership (you), 2) team leadership (we) and 3) societal leadership (all). To demonstrate the youth’s role in driving Sustainable Development, the programme encourages participants to collaborate & volunteer on meaningful community projects with an Asia-Europe twist. Based on the four ASEFYLS4 focus areas (SDG3, SDG4, SDG8 and SDG13), participants are allocated to specific working groups and work on “Leadership in Action” activities. In total, the ASEFYLS4 facilitates 15 community projects, each led by 1 ASEFYLS4 Navigator and supported by up to 10 participants from different Asian & European countries.

The project “The Adjustment Manual: Work from Home Edition” helps work from home individuals learn the essential skills and techniques to adapt better to new demands in the current scenario and to mitigate a potential negative impact on their mental health.

The project will work on two areas:

1) Designing and executing a series of skill-building workshops for resilience; and

2) Collating mental health policies from diverse institutions across ASEM to identify good practices and to develop recommendations.

You can read more about the project in the Brief here.
