- Educate to Elevate Youth -

Project description

EEY is a 6-day training for trainers on Human Rights Education (HRE) and Non-Formal Education (NFE), which aims to develop the competences of the participants (pax) to become active as trainers in European youth projects within the framework of DBYN.
This training course has been postponed. New date: 2-8 November 2020.
The new deadline for registration is the 15th of August 2020.

Training programme

The trainers will build a specific training programme based on the needs of the participants. For this the participants will need to complete a personal assessment form as part of their registration. As we will explore experiential learning and peer education in the training course, it is likely that the participants will be asked to prepare training session in advance, which they deliver during the training course themselves.

Project partners

A training strengthening youth work and young people

​EEY is a training courses targeting an important category of volunteers in our member organisations.
  • Trainers
  • Volunteers active on local level
  • Volunteer returning from voluntary service abroad
 
The project aims to train new trainers in delivering Human Rights Education and Non-Formal Education in the style of Don Bosco.
After the activity the participants should be able to deliver training sessions, courses, … on national level and international level. Participants can be invited to join the Pool of Trainers (PoT) of DBYN. In this way, we replenish the PoT with trainers bringing a new expertise. They will be active on the future activities of DBYN annual work plan, but as well on multilateral activities of our member organisations, on local activities of their home organisation and have access to PoTs of other platforms (European Youth Forum, SALTO, CoE, ...).

Objectives

​The aim of the study session is to train future trainers. The objectives are as follows:
  1. To improve personal trainer’s skills of pax in order to become members of DBYN’s PoT, and deliver training both the local and the international level within the framework of the renewed educational methodology.
  2. To initiate the continued process of self-directed learning and self-reflection as trainers.
  3. To create a strong learning environment where pax learn from each other, build interpersonal networks and learn to use the existing framework of DBYN.
  4. To empower and support pax to get engaged in international activities and processes, in the framework of the DBYN.
