Del 14 al 21 de junio, participantes de nuestra organización tuvieron la increíble oportunidad de unirse al curso de formación Erasmus+ en la hermosa Jastrzębia Góra. 🏖️✨
Este proyecto fue organizado por la maravillosa Fundacja Better Together, y reunió a brillantes mentes como Lydia, Mica y Diego para abordar el problema apremiante de la desaparición de habilidades de comunicación interpersonal. 🗣️💬
Nuestro enfoque fue comprender y superar los errores de comunicación y los desafíos en el trabajo en equipo que se están volviendo más comunes en el mundo actual. A través de actividades participativas, exploramos la comunicación verbal y no verbal, identificando barreras y encontrando soluciones efectivas para mejorar nuestras interacciones. 🤝💡
¡Mantente atento para más actualizaciones y perspectivas de esta experiencia transformadora! 🚀
