ŻAK young leaders organised YouthEARNwas on Saturday 6th and Sunday 7th November for 30 youths aged between 15 and 18 years, coming from different localities around Malta.

This project, financed through the Achievers’ Scheme granted by the Ministry for Equality, Research and Innovation, provided the young people with the opportunity to partake in adventurous activities, such as abseiling, archery, teambuilding activities and camping and also participate in a number of creative workshops such as art and drama. Sedqa was also invited to deliver a workshop to the participants. The aim of this scheme is to engage young people to design and implement community-based interventions and initiatives to prevent or delay the onset of substance misuse.

This activity aimed to help young people discover ways how to enjoy themselves, in the company of their peers, through a number of different physical, creative and social activities.
