​Project description

‘Rise: Design for emergent futures’ is a training course for youth workers and trainers. It aims to train volunteers of DBYN’s member organisations to increase their knowledge and capacities in non-formal education and youth work. The training course will be organised as a study session in the European Youth Centre of Strasbourg. It takes place from Sunday 26th November until Saturday 2nd December (travel days included).

Objectives

The aim of this study session is to develop new opportunities and methods through emergency times or situations. For this, the objectives are as follows:

1. To equip our trainers and staff with new tools and resources to adapt more effectively to the changing and challenging times.
2. To develop deeper understanding of Human Rights based approach for advocacy and build DBYN’s capacity for delivering training and support to its member organisations in this field.
3. To invest in our pool of trainers and our member organisations by providing them with a qualitative training with the European Youth Centre.
4. To support the trainers to integrate the values and methods of Human Rights Education and of the Council of Europe in their work.
