SAFE (Social Awareness for (War) Experiences) introduces a toolkit designed to support the work of facilitators, educators, and youth workers engaging with young people who are directly or indirectly affected by experiences of conflict, displacement, and profound social transformations.

- practical activities and group‑work exercises,
- guidance and suggestions for creating a safe space,
- advice on how to approach difficult topics with sensitivity,
- support and resources for youth workers and facilitators.
This toolkit brings together practical methods, exercises, reflective frameworks, and recommendations that help professionals create safe spaces, plan meaningful learning processes, and address sensitive topics in a responsible, trauma‑informed way.
The toolkit focuses on:
- experience‑based learning, grounded in the realities and lived experiences of young people,
- reflection and dialogue, encouraging self‑understanding and understanding of others,
- human connection, as a foundation for trust, inclusion, and participation,
- adapted working rhythms, allowing each young person to explore complex themes at their own pace.
SAFE provides valuable resources for facilitating discussions about identity, belonging, emotions, resilience, and relationships in a way that protects, supports, and empowers young people.
Through this toolkit, Asociația Novapolis contributes to the development of youth work practices that are context‑sensitive, empathy‑based, and oriented toward personal and community transformation.
