Venue: Vihi and Tallinn (Estonia)
Project Dates: 21st-28th January 2026
“Facilitators’ Playground” will be an international training course for youth workers and educators who want to level up their game facilitation skills. Participants will explore how to be effective game masters, guide players smoothly through different educational game formats (escape games, tabletop games, live action role-play), and conduct meaningful debriefings that turn play into learning.
By the end of the course, participants will:
* Build an international network of practitioners interested in game-based learning.
* Gain confidence in running educational games with diverse groups of youth.
* Be able to design smooth game sessions from introduction to debriefing.
* Expand their toolkit with a variety of tested games and facilitation methods.
Training course on game-based learning
The activity is designed for youth workers and educators (high school teachers, youth trainers, camp leaders, ngo workers) and it is most beneficial for those who work directly with young people aged 14+ and who are interested in acquiring a deeper practical understanding of game-based learning.
The activity is open for residents of Bulgaria, Czechia, Estonia, Greece, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovenia and Spain. Participants have to be over 18 years old and able to follow the training course and work in English.
