The HEARTS Project partnership has successfully completed all local dissemination events organized within the project in Serbia, Croatia, Hungary, and Belgium.
The events brought together youth workers, educators, NGO representatives, students, local stakeholders, and young people interested in mental health, digital youth work, and innovative educational approaches. Through presentations, discussions, interactive activities, and practical demonstrations, participants had the opportunity to explore the main project results and learn more about the role of digital and AI-supported tools in supporting young people’s mental well-being.
During the dissemination events, partner organizations presented the project objectives, implemented activities, research findings, youth workshops, and educational materials developed throughout the project. Special attention was given to the HEARTS Toolkit, practical workshop methodologies, emotional literacy approaches, and tested digital applications that can support youth workers and educators in their everyday practice.
The events also created valuable spaces for professional exchange, networking, and discussion about current mental health challenges faced by young people in different social and educational contexts. Participants reflected on the impact of stress, digital overload, social pressure, and accessibility of support systems, while also exploring how innovative tools and non-formal education methods can contribute to more inclusive and supportive youth work practices.
As part of the project’s sustainability and visibility efforts, the HEARTS partnership has now published the presentation materials used during the local dissemination events, together with the evaluation questionnaire template used for participant feedback and activity assessment.
The materials are intended to support organizations, educators, facilitators, and youth workers interested in organizing similar dissemination activities, workshops, or educational events focused on mental health, digital literacy, and youth well-being.
All resources are available free of charge in the Resources section of the project website.
