ThinkWise: Develop Critical Thinking Skills
The ThinkWise project, held from 15th to 23rd August 2024 in Osterholz-Scharmbeck, Germany, was an unforgettable youth exchange that brought together passionate young people from across Europe. Over the course of a week, participants from different countries came together to explore critical thinking, cultural awareness, and collaboration, creating a unique and inspiring atmosphere of learning and connection.
From the very first energizers that broke the ice to the deep, thoughtful debates on social issues, ThinkWise became a space where participants could challenge themselves, question their perspectives, and grow together. Through activities like the “Bunker” team discussions and creative theater workshops, young minds were not only encouraged to think critically but also found a platform to express themselves and build meaningful bonds with one another.
The evenings were particularly special, with intercultural nights where participants shared their heritage through food, music, and dance. The laughter, the exchange of stories, and the celebration of diversity created lasting memories that transcended borders and built deep mutual respect and friendships.
Outdoor activities, energizers, and collaborative games kept everyone engaged and energized, fostering an inclusive and supportive environment. Each day was filled with moments that connected participants on both a personal and intellectual level, as they learned not just about the world but also about themselves.
By the end of the week, participants left with more than just knowledge. They carried with them new friendships, a profound understanding of social issues, and the confidence to be active, informed citizens capable of making a difference in their communities. ThinkWise wasn’t just a project—it was a journey of growth, discovery, and empowerment, one that will continue to influence the lives of those who took part for years to come.
