Santarém will host our upcoming CareLink training, bringing partners from four countries together to improve mental health support for disaster-affected youth and communities.
After the storms and floods that hit Santarém this winter, the location carries real meaning.
Grateful to the Polytechnic Institute of Santarém for hosting us and joining this work.

Peace doesn’t begin when conflict ends. It begins when learning never stops.
Sometimes the most important work of peace happens in the design of everyday spaces.

Yesterday, we ran another experiment in the EU Democracy Campus.
Young people from different countries entered the same virtual space to test what happens when participation has an architecture: rooms for memory, debate, crisis, reflection, and imagining what comes next.
The most interesting part was not the VR.
It was watching democracy become something young people could practise together.

Some tools feel theoretical — these ones don’t.
They were built in real rooms, with real young people, during real moments when thinking needed more than answers… it needed space.
- Design principles for calmer classrooms.
- A debate framework refined across 300+ dialogues.
- Reflection prompts that help groups settle.
- Curiosity tools that turn tension into understanding.

It was a very special day for participants in Transition Chipping Norton's outdoor youth project which they run in partnership with Learn2Sustain.
They recently hosted a group from the Maasai community in Kenya, cooking lunch for them, exploring each others culture and lives, and sharing some fun and games.
People from all ages and projects in the Transition group later enjoyed a campfire supper and the chance to connect with each other at an ancient stone circle near the town, watching the sunset together and reflecting on the exchange and our common humanity.
Cara Hedges from the group said it reminded everyone "what we do here affects those that are in Africa, how simple their life is and how complex we’ve made ours and just spend some time reflecting on what we can do to support all of those that we are affecting with our choices.”
