Hosting Empowerment: The Book

In the summer of 2023, at one of the world’s most ecologically responsible printing presses, the three-year European Commission-funded project Hosting Empowerment published a book. I had the honor of illustrating and designing this book, along with my collaborator Boris Goldammer.

The idea behind the book is to provide a guide for facilitators who want to empower those they work with. This could be teachers, therapists, coaches, artists, and changemakers throughout Europe and the US.

About the team that created the workbook

What is “Hosting Empowerment” all about?

As a partnership of seven organizations from 6 different European countries, how can we as hosts (e.g. facilitators, teachers, social workers or leaders) create ideal conditions that promote courage, self-confidence and self-efficacy? How can we empower ourselves and those we work with?

From 2020-2023 we developed concrete methods, tools and materials that strengthen people in difficult situations and those who care for them.
