Rational Room. Kolin, Czech Republic, 2022

The "Rational Room" training course was held in Kolin, Czech Republic in April- May of 2022 and it was a truly unforgettable experience.

Despite the rigorous training, the days were filled with warmth and laughter as the participants bonded and learned from each other.

The focus of the course was critical thinking, and by the end of the training, each participant had gained the knowledge and skills needed to build their own escape room. The team worked together seamlessly, thanks to effective team-building activities, resulting in the creation of highly logical and engaging escape rooms.

The participants were eager to apply the new knowledge and skills they acquired during the training course to their everyday lives. The course not only provided them with the tools to build unique and challenging escape rooms, but also helped them to develop their critical thinking and problem-solving skills, which will prove to be valuable assets in their personal and professional lives.

In conclusion, the "Rational Room" training course was a highly impactful and enjoyable experience that will have a lasting impact on the participants and their future endeavors.

This project was implemented by Logos with support of Erasmus+  programme.

Feeling factory. Kolin, Czechia, 2019

What was it about?

Training course “Feeling factory” was implemented in Kolin, Czechia on 30 November - 8 December 2019. The project was hosted by CEFIG with trainers' team coming from Logos and AFR and funded by Czech National Agency.

We had 24 youth workers from 8 countries on 7 days long training course. Our aim was to raise awareness about such human rights issues as domestic violence, xenophobia and discrimination through making escape rooms, as well as understanding how to use escape rooms as a learning tool in order to create various activities at local communities.

Following objectives were set for the project:

  • Develop higher awareness of human rights topic in Europe
  • Provide participants with a specific educational tool - Escape Rooms
  • To tackle specific issues in our communities
  • To share the results of the project in local communities
  • Foster an idea of innovative methods in education to attract youth

How did it go?

This was the first time the project on escape rooms was implemented by Logos team in Czechia. The training course was delivered by trainers Emir Shevkiiev and Marko Boyko and junior trainer Anaïs Belliard and it was organised by the team of CEFIG.

At the project, we had a chance to build rooms in the hotel in the centre of Kolin. Our participants built 3 escape rooms connected to the topics of the training course and we invited locals to come and play. At the open event, we had around 30 guests, who had a chance to learn and play at the same time.

The rooms that participants built:

Story of Marie

The educational goal of the room is to raise awareness about sexual orientation discrimination.

Hello everyone, my name is X and I'm Marie's sister. I got your message asking if you could come to Marie's room to try to understand the reason why she tried to kill herself. I can't imagine what drove her to do this because she was always smiling and now she is at the hospital.

Boat ride

The educational goal of the room: create an environment for players to experience the refugee, create awareness about xenophobia.

You are immigrants that paid a high price to cross the sea to get to a developed country. You just want to have a better life. I am going to hand you to the boat’s captain that will escort you to your hiding place.

Happily ever after

The educational goal of the room is to raise awareness of domestic violence situations. The main goal for players during the game is to help their friend - Emma Brown, by finding her passport and ticket and escape from the room before her boyfriend finds her.

Below you can directly access toolboxes on the rooms made by participants

In each "toolbox" you can find following information:

  • Explanation of what is the room about
  • Description of storyline and puzzles
