Interest list · Impactful Learning Experiences 2027

Where will your Learning Experience take you in 2027?

In 2027 we're organising Impactful Learning Experiences for youth professionals again: to Cape Town, Zanzibar and possibly Rio de Janeiro. Soon you'll find all the details here. For now, we'd love to know: where would you most like to be inspired, and which theme speaks to you most?

The Impactful Learning Experience

What a week looks like

Mornings: training

You choose which training you want to follow: Trauma-Informed Care, or Child Sexual Abuse: Awareness, Action & Prevention. You train together with local role models. So you hear straight away how colleagues in a very different practice and setting deal with the same questions and challenges.

Afternoons: out and about

Off to special places at your destination. Here you join unique workshops with local non-profit organisations and see how they build resilience with children and young people: through music, movement, sport or creativity. And that same day, you work out what could work in your own classroom, group or practice.

Your accommodation is arranged

We arrange the whole week for you: from training and workshops to your accommodation and good meals. All you need to book is your flight. That makes it easy to add a holiday, and all your energy goes to what you came for.

What participants say about their Cape Town experience

The destinations

Three destinations in 2027

Every Learning Experience has the same foundation: training in the mornings, learning from local organisations in the afternoons, and everything well arranged. The place makes each trip different. Soon you'll find the full programme for each destination here.

First half of 2027

Cape Town

Mountains, ocean and a city full of resilience. You train in the mornings and spend the afternoons with local organisations working through sport, music and creativity.

October 2027

Zanzibar

There's something special about Zanzibar. White beaches, the scent of cloves and an island where community is everything. In October, you train in the mornings and learn from local initiatives on the island in the afternoons.

November or December 2027

Rio de Janeiro

A city where very different worlds sit remarkably close together, and where football, surfing, capoeira and samba bring children together every single week. We're exploring a Learning Experience here in late 2027. Share your interest and we'll take your wishes into the planning.
