"Her World Her Rules is a programme in partnership with FIBA, designed to target girls between the ages of 9-14 years old and encourage them to play basketball.
The sessions are fun and inclusive, which is the primary vision of the programme. It has worked very well so far with our Development Officers delivering these sessions throughout the country in different areas".

NOT JUST A GAME will be part of a big event organised in Čadca! 52 different speakers and presenters organising workshops for 700 participants on various topics such as new technologies, non-formal education, psychology, self-development, well-being, internet security, inclusion, etc. We are honoured and very much looking forward to the event. We will keep you informed!

Deň INAK prichádza. A tentokrát to berú do rúk študenti.
…
Na Gymnázium J. M. Hurbana v Čadci sa pripravuje deň, kedy výučba nebude vyzerať tak, ako ju poznáš.

Za myšlienkou stojí KERIC, ale všetko podstatné – organizácia, logistika aj priebeh – majú v rukách samotní študenti.

➡️ viac ako 52 workshopov a prednášok
➡️ celý deň rozdelený do blokov
➡️ študenti si vyberajú, kam chcú ísť

Namiesto klasického rozvrhu vznikol priestor, kde si každý môže poskladať deň podľa seba.

Čo ťa čaká?

– témy, ktoré škola bežne nestíha:
kritické myslenie a sociálne siete, AI v praxi, mentálne zdravie, zvládanie stresu, finančná gramotnosť, podnikanie, udržateľnosť, psychológia konzumu

– praktické skúsenosti:
robotika, tvorba hudby, fotografia, filmový zvuk, architektúra, dizajn, tanec, šport

– reálny svet bez filtra:
medicína, práca vyšetrovateľa, médiá, dobrovoľníctvo v zahraničí, expedície a veľké životné rozhodnutia

Nejde o “zábavný deň”.
Ide o výzvu: čo sa stane, keď študenti dostanú kontrolu nad vlastným vzdelávaním.

Jeden deň. Iný prístup. Reálne skúsenosti.

🤓Even when working on serious topics like preventing radicalization, we don’t forget the importance of play, creativity, and team spirit.🔥👏..
During our working meeting in Rabka, project partners tested a series of light team-building challenges — including one where the task was to form a Christmas tree in 30 seconds.

Why do we include such playful activities in our methodology?
Because they help groups open up, collaborate faster, build trust, and create a safe atmosphere. These elements are essential before moving into deeper discussions on empathy, non-violent communication, or understanding conflict.

🙌 In April, our full methodology for teachers and youth workers will be ready — blending both serious, structured activities and these lighter, energizing challenges that bring people together.

🎄 Creativity, teamwork, and a lot of fun — all part of making learning more engaging and meaningful.
