“LARPing for Well-Being” is a youth project that uses Live Action Role-Playing (LARP) to boost emotional well-being, social skills, and resilience. Youth workers are first trained to design and facilitate LARP activities, developing their skills and confidence in using this creative, experiential method. They then engage young people in immersive role-playing experiences, helping them explore real-life situations, express themselves, and strengthen their social and emotional skills in a safe and playful environment.

At the same time, the project partners co-create LARP tools and resources, which are collected on an open-access online platform. This platform allows anyone—youth workers, educators, or organizations—to access, adapt, and use the tools, ensuring the project’s impact reaches far beyond the initial participants.
