As part of the Healthy Lifestyle Pathways training course held in Marrakesh, Morocco, participants worked collaboratively to create four unique booklets aimed at promoting healthy lifestyles and independence among young people with fewer opportunities. This training course, organized by Babilon Travel NGO, brought together 30 youth workers from Romania, Greece, Spain, and Morocco, who combined their expertise to develop practical resources for fostering well-being.
During the training, participants were divided into four groups, each tasked with designing a booklet that provides tools and strategies for supporting healthy habits. These booklets include a blend of theoretical knowledge and practical exercises that youth workers can use in their own communities. Covering topics like nutrition, mental health, physical activity, and digital well-being, tips and tricks, each booklet reflects the shared commitment of these youth workers to build a healthier, more resilient future.
Each booklet is a resource that empowers youth workers to inspire positive, healthy lifestyle changes within their communities. We invite you to explore these booklets below and share them with those who may benefit from these valuable insights!

From October 28 to November 3, 2024, 30 youth workers from Romania, Greece, Spain, and Morocco gathered in Marrakesh, Morocco, for Healthy Lifestyle Pathways (HeLP ), organized under Babilon Travel NGO’s Youth Accreditation 2024. This training course aimed to equip youth workers with tools to encourage healthy habits and independent living among young people with fewer opportunities.
About the Training
The “Healthy Lifestyle Pathways” training was a blend of theory, hands-on workshops, and networking opportunities, designed to strengthen the skills and knowledge of youth workers. Participants explored well-being practices, ways to foster independence, and methods to engage youth with impactful digital content. Each participant left with toolboxes and booklets filled with both theoretical and practical resources they can use to support young people in their communities.
Beyond training sessions, participants experienced the vibrant culture of Marrakesh, creating strong connections with each other while exploring local sights and traditions.
What’s Next?
With new skills and insights, our youth workers are excited to share their learnings with their communities. We’ll soon be releasing a short film and practical resources developed during the course, so stay tuned!

We’re excited to share the outcome of our “Low-Ropes Training for Youth Workers,” part of the Inclusive Evolution 2024 project. This training, held at the beautiful Straja Resort in Romania, aimed to empower youth workers with practical outdoor education methods, focusing on social inclusion and personal development.
