The second newsletter of the EMERGE Youth Erasmus+ project has been published, highlighting the project’s latest achievements, the international partner meeting held in Athens, and progress in developing innovative tools to support young people’s stress management skills and mental well-being.

The EMERGE Youth project aims to help young people strengthen their resilience and develop effective coping strategies, with a particular focus on managing stress. The international partnership is working on practical resources and educational materials to support young people in overcoming everyday challenges and maintaining good mental health.

The newsletter reports on the second transnational project meeting, held in Athens in April 2025, where representatives of all partner organisations gathered to review progress, exchange experiences, and plan the next stages of the project.

One of the project’s important achievements is the publication of a collection of stress management good practices. Available in five languages—English, French, Greek, Czech, and Hungarian—the collection presents successful European initiatives and practical approaches that help young people cope with stress and build resilience. The examples include mental health applications, podcasts, social media campaigns, non-governmental organisation initiatives, and community programmes.

The newsletter also provides updates on the development of the EduPack educational package and the WebApp. The EduPack will consist of five modules covering key aspects of stress management. These modules will be accessible through the WebApp, which will also feature a comprehensive collection of 60 practical stress management activities. The exercises are designed for individual, group, and community settings.

Through these developments, the EMERGE Youth project seeks to provide young people and the professionals supporting them with accessible, practical tools to improve stress management skills, strengthen resilience, and promote mental well-being.
