Details:
The Youth Department of the Council of Europe is launching Enter! a Long-Term Training Course (LTTC) for youth workers on access to social rights for all young people, as a complementary training offering youth workers who undertake activities with young people that experience disadvantage the opportunity:
• to gain insights into how the European level and engagement with policy actors can support their efforts to empower young people, and;
• to promote access to social rights for young people, in an effort of overcoming the disadvantage young people face due to exclusion, violence and discrimination.
The LTTC will develop the competences of 30 youth workers, in developing and implementing responses, projects and partner ships in support of youth-led efforts to overcome discrimination, exclusion and violence, in a European perspective.
The objectives of the course are:
• To introduce participants to socio-educational project development, management, implementation and evaluation (especially focusing on evidence based needs analysis);
• To support participants in developing youth-led socio-educational projects (aiming to overcome youth disadvantage determined by discrimination, exclusion and violence), based on human rights education and with a clear policy advocacy dimension;
• To develop participants’ understanding and knowledge of the human rights framework and the policy fields that are relevant to the situation of the young people with whom they work;
• To develop participants’ competence and confidence for engaging with decision-makers and other actors in the youth and social policy fields for improving access to social rights for young people;
• To introduce participants to relevant European (and related national) mechanisms and instruments for supporting young people to overcome disadvantage determined by discrimination, exclusion and violence;
• To contribute to the social and education recognition of youth work and non-formal education for social rights in participants’ realities and at European level.
What for?
Throughout the course and as a result of its educational process, participants will:
• Improve their core competences in the areas related to the course curriculum;
• Follow a full cycle of intercultural learning, from needs assessment to evaluation of learning;
• Receive institutional and educational support to develop projects with young people, as well as increased visibility for their youth work activities;
• Exchange practices with other youth workers from different contexts and network among participants, for instance in international projects on access to social rights for young people;
• Develop their organisations’ capacity on the topic of improving access to social rights for young people;
• Establish or develop a dialogue and partnerships with local and regional authorities and with civil society organisations;
• Receive social and educational recognition for their involvement in the training course;
• Improve their competences in using European programmes for youth work and tools at the local level.
