🌍🇬🇷🇹🇷🇭🇺 Day 3 of the Greece Mobility – Creativity, Expression and Positive Energy!

The third day of our Erasmus+ project “STEMpower Through Art: An Inclusive Future for Youth with Special Needs” was dedicated to creativity, self-expression, teamwork, and personal development through non-formal education activities.

Today, participants had the opportunity to work with Kalliopi Perri, an outstanding Theatre Play Facilitator and Intercultural Youth Group Leader, who inspired the group with her enthusiasm, professionalism, and positive energy. Through interactive theatre-based activities, creative exercises, and team-building experiences, participants explored new ways of communication, cooperation, empathy, self-confidence, and intercultural understanding.

The atmosphere throughout the day was truly remarkable. Young people from Greece, Türkiye, and Hungary actively participated, expressed themselves freely, collaborated with one another, and strengthened the bonds that have been developing since the beginning of the mobility.

A special thank you goes to Kalliopi Perri for her exceptional contribution, her inspiring approach, and the positive spirit she brought to the group. Her ability to engage participants, create a welcoming environment, and encourage meaningful interaction made today's activities an unforgettable experience for everyone involved.

As partners — STEM Robotics Academy (Greece), Otizmli ve Özel Gereksinimli Bireyler Eğitim Yaşam Derneği (Türkiye), and Berek Friends Association (Hungary) — we are proud to see our participants growing, connecting, and learning together through such enriching experiences.

🇪🇺 Together, we continue building a more inclusive, creative, and connected Europe.

🌍🇬🇷🇹🇷🇭🇺 Day 2 of the Greece Mobility – Exploring Inclusive STEM Education Through Robotics!

Today’s activities focused on one of the core objectives of our Erasmus+ project “STEMpower Through Art: An Inclusive Future for Youth with Special Needs”: promoting inclusion and active participation through innovative educational approaches.

The team of STEM Robotics Academy introduced participants to the world of educational robotics and demonstrated how STEM tools can be adapted to support learners with special educational needs. Through interactive presentations, practical examples, and collaborative discussions, participants explored how robotics can foster communication, creativity, problem-solving, teamwork, self-confidence, and engagement in inclusive learning environments.

In addition, participants were introduced to learner-centered teaching methodologies, non-formal education techniques, and inclusive educational strategies that help ensure equal learning opportunities for all young people, regardless of their individual abilities or challenges.

Together with our partners, Otizmli ve Özel Gereksinimli Bireyler Eğitim Yaşam Derneği and Berek Friends Association, we continue building a space where innovation, creativity, inclusion, and international cooperation come together to create meaningful educational experiences.

The enthusiasm, curiosity, and active participation of the young people made this day a great success, and we are excited for the inspiring activities that lie ahead!

🇪🇺 Together, we are shaping a future where STEM education is accessible, engaging, and inclusive for everyone.

🌟 Online Preparation Meeting for the 2nd Mobility in Greece 🌟

On 5 June 2026, the partners and participants of our Erasmus+ KA154-YOU project “STEMpower Through Art: An Inclusive Future for Youth with Special Needs” met online in preparation for the upcoming 2nd Mobility Activity, which will take place in Larisa, Greece, hosted by STEM Robotics Academy.

As the coordinating organisation, we were very happy to welcome our partners and young participants from Greece, Türkiye and Hungary and to discuss the next steps of our common journey.

During the meeting, we focused on the programme of the Greek mobility, the upcoming inclusive STEM and art-based workshops, intercultural cooperation, practical arrangements and the active participation of all young people.

This online meeting was an important step to make sure that all participants feel informed, prepared and included before their arrival in Greece. Through this project, we continue working together to show how STEM, creativity and art can become powerful tools for inclusion, expression and youth empowerment.

📊 Listening to Young People: Needs Assessment in STEMpower Through Art

At the heart of STEMpower Through Art is a simple but powerful principle:
young people must be heard before solutions are designed.

Before implementing any activities, all partner organisations carried out a structured Needs Assessment involving young people, youth workers and educators. This process helped us identify real needs, interests and barriers related to:
✔ access to STEM & creative learning
✔ inclusion and participation
✔ digital skills and self-expression
✔ wellbeing and safe learning environments

🧩 The collected insights directly shaped:
• the learning activities and workshops
• the tools and methods used
• the safeguarding and inclusion approach of the project

By listening first, we ensure that our youth activities are meaningful, inclusive and truly responsive to young people’s realities. 🤝✨
