Details:
Events and occurrences of the last couple of years ranging from violent riot in U.K in 2011, violent protest in Spain, Bulgaria and Greece is constantly confusing young people as to the veracity of non-violent response to conflict. The ongoing violent confrontation in Ukraine is a bad taste in every one’s mouth. Why international Youth Training on Conflict Transformation and Negotiations through Turbulence. Today ‘s world is challenging for young people: different and changing economic climate, skyrocketing youth unemployment, constant violent flash points across Europe with no clear end in sight and there is despair and natural attraction to use violent protest to either make a point or assert themselves. In this dire situations and circumstances youth workers play an important role in supporting young people in coping with personal, economic, social and intercultural conflicts. They can facilitate constructive learning outcomes and stimulate reflective perspectives, supporting young people in recognizing conflicts as part of an important learning process. The project seeks to train youth leaders’, managers and youth workers in a standardized conflict transformation and negotiation skills. This training is a departure from the usual conflict trainings rather it will use the John Paul Lederach model pioneered in 1980's which saw conflict as something that must not necessarily be resolved or managed rather but TRANSFORMED because conflict is natural and its neutral. The project will redirect youth energy from reacting to conflict but responding and engaging with conflict and give them skills to analyse the WHY of conflict and be able to carry out right approaches to conflicts but because you can not transform any form of conflict without adequate knowledge of negotiation skills. The training will fuse these two important concept and tools together. One of the aims of this training is to empower and equip young leaders and youth workers with negotiation skills. Everyone negotiates something every day. You negotiate with your family about where to spend the weekend. You discuss a raise with your boss. You try to agree with a stranger on the price of his house. We buy and sell, manage workers and work for managers, deal with friends, family, colleagues, merchants, organizations, and institutions all the time.
But how does one become an effective negotiator?
This training will revolutionize young people in Europe.
