Don’t forget to learn too

• Reflect on your own emotions and sensibilities • Be welcoming of any new knowledge your participants will share with you

Keep it simple

• Repeat briefly what the person before you just said to make sure everyone understood • Use visualisation or graphic facilitation to explain complicated points • Use accessible vocabulary and explain technical words

Pay attention

• Feel the atmosphere • Stay connected to your intuition and identify the right moment to move on, or stop (reflection has reached a conclusion, something wrong happens, the participants are lost…) • Anticipate any trauma that could be triggered

Use feeling / senses as a tool

• Use metaphors to convey your message • Use colour to make structure your info • Stretch between sessions • Invite participants to use their senses

Be safe

• Be kind to yourself, stay safe • Take space and time for your own emotions • Look after your own energy as an activist, many people can get burnt out

Examples of visual supports and session outlines (Annexe)

We gathered in our the CEYOU website a few examples of sessions' supports: a session on Eco Anxiety, a session on Ecofriendly Fashion and a workshop on Strategic planning within the context of Circular Economy. Find there scripts and visual presentations that you can use while implementing a session on these topics, or to get inspired on the structure of a session. You will also find a template to create your own session outline.
