I am Tanja Veber, a social pedagogue, youth worker, and non-formal education trainer with several years of experience working with young people, particularly in the field of mental health, group facilitation, and one-to-one support. My professional work also includes working with people from migrant backgrounds, LGBTIQ+ people, people experiencing long-term unemployment, people with diverse abilities, and other marginalised groups. In recognition of my long-standing voluntary work, I received the Volunteer of the Year award from the National Youth Council of Slovenia in 2016, following a nomination by the Centre for Youth Support.

The main themes and areas of my training work include:
