Details:
"No shell on the shelf: a tool for promoting social inclusion" is a European training course aiming at increasing the level of awareness of young people regarding social exclusion, racism, stereotypes and prejudice and how these affect the life of certain minorities, social groups or individuals that may differ from the majority of the society they live in. The training course is addressed to young participants (over 18 y.o.) from Spain, Portugal, Italy and Cyprus. The training course will help the participants to develop their intercultural understanding and communication skills, empathy and respect towards any human being. At the same time, the TC will encourage the participants to become more active in the combating of racism and social exclusion and will present them the concept of the Human (Living) Library as a tool for promoting tolerance, empathy and mutual understanding.
