Problem they came to UPSHIFT with: low level of socialization of teenagers

Solution they found at UPSHIFT: The team created a non-centered space aimed at supporting and developing social skills of youth. Using different locations, the project successfully gained an audience and helped teenagers acquire the necessary communication skills, develop self-management and critical analysis skills. During the implementation, “Youth of Action” used different formats — educational trainings, master classes, art therapy events and a literary club.

The team formed many partnerships — NGO “Hearts in Palms”, NGO “Volunteer Movement of Ukraine”, NGO “Peresypchanka”, restobar “Sea Bass”. Partners shared their experience and helped to hold events, as well as provided information and resource support.
