Goldsmiths, University of London

We had a very informative session about conflict resolution and how it is important in youth work today

There was also an icebreaker carried out to make us reflect on stereotypes and how we subconsciously judge people

A discussion was opened up about refugees and racism although it seemed difficult for some of the amsterdam participants to translate and really understand the nature of the conversation

Dutch team met goldsmiths students and everyone shared a little about their backgrounds and the time of work that they do

We then went to riverside youth club and spoke to Merv (service manager within the area for Lewisham council) about youth work and what the main problems are in London and why adventure playgrounds have been set up for young people

It was very interested to see how much this engaged the non-UK participants
