The Centre for the Cooperation in the Mediterranean, in collaboration with the PS Centre, organized a one-day training on Peer Support and Psychological First Aid (PFA) for Youth Red Cross and Red Crescent leaders from 17 Mediterranean National Societies. The training, designed for youth who are 18 and above or young adults, was included in the agenda of the Mediterranean Youth Camp “Atlantis” and provided a platform for exchanging ideas, sharing experiences, and exploring best practices while fostering regional solidarity and collaboration. The workshop aimed to enhance participants’ skills in providing PFA and peer support, underscoring their transformative impact on leadership, empathy, and strategic planning. Through tailored activities and discussions, participants explored how PFA and peer support equip them to better understand and respond to crises while strengthening connections to themselves and their communities.
