HEARTLAND

Taking care of ourselves will only help us to take better care of others.

What is HEARTLAND?

HEARTLAND aims to address youth workers, adult educators and other helping professionals with high risk of burnout to develop their competences through creativity and art embedded into the activities and the intellectual outputs of the 24 month collaboration.

Skills development is ensured through extended combined methodological tools, new innovative modular curricula and online learning modules. These resources are meant to serve and develop expression through arts skills, digital competences and resilience skills essential to tackle burnout.

HEARTLAND 2020-1-HU01-KA227-ADU-094067 is funded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union.

HEARTLAND Toolbox

The project toolboxes support resilience, self-reflection and the well-being of helping professionals from different organizational perspectives.

Why is resilience important?

The phenomenon of burnout within helping professions – including educators – has been known since the 1970s, and by now a solid research and practical intervention basis exists linked to it. However, burnout continues to be a severe issue until today.

Experiencing the COVID pandemic outbreak in spring 2020 and its effects on people in general, and especially on health- and social care workers, made it crucial that helping professionals create necessary time to reflect and build resilience in order to ground themselves well.

When we are able to care for ourselves, we are stronger, more resilient. Taking care of ourselves will only help us to take better care of others.
