🎭😄 COMIC RELIEF | WP3 – Piloting Sessions
Over the past three months, we ran 3 co-construction workshops with young people — creative, joyful, and deeply meaningful. 💛

📅 March 30 | April 27 | May 25, 2026

🎯 Why these workshops?
As part of the European project #ComicRelief, co-funded by the European Union, we are exploring how humour and creativity can help young people (aged 16–30) deal with stress, anxiety and social isolation. No theory without practice — we experiment first, with them, for them.
These piloting sessions are at the heart of the project: co-designing a method that truly works, before turning it into a handbook for youth professionals.

What we explored:
✨ Improvisation theatre
🤡 Clown therapy
✂️ Collage & hands-on activities
🖌️ Painting & artistic expression

Laughing together is also a way to reconnect — with yourself and with others. These workshops showed us that humour is a genuine tool for resilience. 💪
What's next? We'll share our results with European partners in Slovakia this summer, to finalize the handbook and video tutorials together.

🇪🇺 Co-funded by the European Union.

Dr. Leidinger, Rave-Schwank & Kayser at EUFAMI/BApK Forum: families are mental health's "hidden workforce," facing stigma & isolation.
Empowering carers is essential for recovery. Cross-border solutions can break barriers. Unity breaks stigma.

May marks #MentalHealthAwareness Month. At @EUFAMI, we recognise and honour the vital contribution of families and caregivers in supporting loved ones experiencing mental ill health every day. Their support, advocacy, and care deserve continuous recognition and inclusion.

🇪🇺 Europe is not a place. It’s a possibility.

To learn across borders. To speak up freely. To build a future together. Democracy starts with education. With critical thinking. With active citizens.

Through #ErasmusPlus, millions already live this every day.

Happy Europe Day!⭐

Today we celebrate the people who power our economies and societies — and the progress made on workers' rights across the EU:

🔹 Safe & healthy workplaces
🔹 Equal treatment
🔹 Adequate minimum wage
🔹 Work–life balance

As work changes, these rights only get stronger.

💜 Συμβουλή της ημέρας #5

Μίλα σε κάποιον που εμπιστεύεσαι.

Υπάρχουν στιγμές που όλα μοιάζουν βαριά και δύσκολα να ειπωθούν. Δεν χρειάζεται, όμως, να τα περνάς μόνος/η.

Μια αληθινή συζήτηση με έναν άνθρωπο που σε ακούει χωρίς να κρίνει μπορεί να φέρει ανακούφιση, κατανόηση και μια μικρή αλλά σημαντική αλλαγή στην καθημερινότητά σου.

Το να μοιράζεσαι δεν είναι αδυναμία. Είναι φροντίδα — προς τον εαυτό σου.

Δεν είσαι μόνος/η. Και δεν χρειάζεται να είσαι.

________________________________________________________________________
💜 Tip of the day #5

Talk to someone you trust.

There are moments when everything feels heavy and hard to put into words. But you don’t have to face it all alone.

An honest conversation with someone who listens without judgment can bring relief, understanding, and a small but meaningful shift in how things feel.

Sharing is not a sign of weakness. It’s an act of care — for yourself.

You are not alone. And you don’t have to.

💡 Older people’s rights are upheld in everyday care, not laws alone.

The Age with Rights campaign calls for stronger global protection, but making rights real depends on skills in care settings.

That’s where Eldicare 2.0 strengthens transversal skills for rights-based care.
