To provide our learners with a high-quality learning option to build resilience and develop coping mechanisms against negative news and events. And, to promote the importance of caring for the mental health of learners in the adult education sector and beyond. The main result of the project will be The Emotional Umbrella toolkit with examples of practical exercises and methodological support for art therapy to address the issues of psychological resilience and coping with negative news and information. 10 educators will be trained to use the toolkit, and around 20 learners taking part in the training will feel the benefits. Around 20 stakeholders will participate in the final events for dissemination of the project results in both partner cities.
