Ramon Martensen was born in 1983 in the Netherlands. Throughout his professional career, his passion for creative writing, poetry, fairy tales, and storytelling has always been an active part of his life. One day he decided to combine his competence in leading groups and developing educational programs with his creative passion. Today he uses creative writing and archetypal stories such as fairytales and myths to raise self-awareness and empowerment in groups and individuals. He has done this as a trainer in several Erasmus+ training and local initiatives.
TARGET GROUP
Youth workers, social workers, non-formal learning facilitators and trainers, coaches and teachers.
Participation will be free of charge in this course and travel and accommodation costs of the participants will be covered in line with the conditions of the programme Erasmus+.
ROLE OF PARTNERS
Partners in this project are expected to send two participants who match the target group and support them in their preparation and organising follow-up activities in accordance to the profile and needs of these selected participants. We hope for your support in promoting this project and disseminating its results.
We will ask our participants to do a workshop or event in their countries after returning from the course in order to share some of their learnings and gains. We’d expect partners to support their participants in organising this event.
