The Youth Programme project ‘E-games: empowering youth work’ builds on this potential, offering innovative training materials around key themes. The project has seized on the opportunity to promote the use of e-games in youth work, developing an innovative package of resources for use by youth leaders and other workers in youth centres and local authorities.At the core of the package are 20 new e-games focused around four important topics for youth training. The project has also developed a methodology for the use of e-games in youth work, compiled into an online manual containing practical information as well as theory.To help disseminate the project results, three training events were organised around the themes of the role of modern media and games, modern media and communications and e-games in youth work.
