What is the workshop about?

The International Federation of Liberal Youth (IFLRY) is thrilled to invite young leaders, thinkers, and changemakers to join us for our upcoming workshop, “Mental Well-being in Action: You(th) to the Rescue.” This second event, as part of our work plan 2025, in partnership with the Council of Europe – European Youth Foundation, will take place from July 17th to 20th, 2025, in the vibrant city of Warsaw, Poland. 

In today’s fast-paced political landscape, mental well-being has emerged as a critical focus area. Politicians and young activists, often at the forefront of public service, are exposed to unique pressures that significantly impact their personal lives and consequently the broader community. This workshop is designed to explore the intersection of mental well-being and leadership, empowering participants with the tools, strategies, and understanding to tackle challenges while fostering growth and balance in their professional and personal lives.
