EVS mid-term seminar

Aims & objectives

This was part of the EVS cycle. The aims included to encourage the participants to evaluate their project cycle until now, start reflecting on their own learning, prepare them for the last part of their projects, as well as the end of the projects.

Target group & international/intercultural composition of the group & team

We had 28 participants from a number of countries, all of whom were in the latter half of their EVS projects in Norway. The 2 trainers were Norwegian.

Training methods used & main activities

We used a number of group brainstormings, buzz groups for reflection, energisers, teambuilding activities.

Outcomes of the activity

The training activity helped prepare the participants for the remainder of the project times, as well as build a network for their time in Norway, as well as afterwards.
