Objective and content
The Train the Trainer Seminar 'Peers for tolerance and diversity' is based on the Train-the-Trainer Programme of the European Peer Training Organisation (EPTO). Its goal is to train youth leaders to facilitate workshops that address issues related to: diversity, interculturalism, anti-racism, and anti-discrimination in general. The training is organised by Bildungswerk BLITZ e.V. in Germany in cooperation with EPTO and its partner organisations FDYS Ltd. in Ireland, the Centre for Intercultural Dialogue in Slovakia, EPTO Österreich in Austria, EPTO Hungary, EPTO Nederlands in the Netherlands and 4motion a.s.b.l. in Luxembourg. The programme model used by EPTO comes from the A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE® Institute.
It aims to help youth to:
• Be aware of their personal and cultural identity;
• Recognise their own prejudices and stereotypes;
• Recognise and confront prejudice and discrimination in all forms;
• Develop empathy, critical thinking, and communication skills;
• Create an inclusive environment;
• Develop an action plan.
Basic Principles
We believe that prejudice and discrimination operate on three main levels: the individual, interpersonal, and institutional. The activities are interactive, experiential, and are rooted in the principles of intercultural learning. Participants are asked to share experiences and opinions, to practice active listening skills with others, and to learn emotionally as well as intellectually. Participants are also expected to develop an action plan that demonstrates personal responsibility for confronting prejudice and discrimination in society. Upon completing the Train-the-Trainer Programme, you will become an EPTO Peer Trainer. You will be expected to organize and facilitate peer-training workshops and inform EPTO or your local member organisation about your training activities. These workshops can take place in schools or youth organisations, and they can last a few hours or a few days.
Criteria for participation
• Be between the ages of 18 – 27 (flexible);
• Be fluent in English;
• Previous experience and/or special interest in intercultural learning;
• Be available to volunteer as a peer trainer.
