Estonia will be host country and Spain, Slovakia, Greece, Bulgaria, Italy, Romania, Portugal and United Kingdom will be sending countries. The general aim of our project is to combat hate speech online and offline.
Specific objectives are:
• To Increase the competencies of youth workers to recognize hate speech and human rights abuse and combat it in youth work;
• To acknowledge the dangers of hate speech for youth and democratic values;
• To introduce youth workers Bookmarks/Compass as a tool to work on hate speech and human rights with youngsters and provide them with useful methods;
• To empower youth workers to stand up for human rights offline and online;
• To share good practices of anti-hate speech actions in participating countries;
• To create new initiatives on local and international level to combat hate speech.
After the training course we will have youth workers, who understand the terms connected to hate speech and human rights. They know how to recognize hate speech and where to report it. They have learnt about human rights, and are conscious about human rights violations and try to stop it where possible. They understand that hate speech has very serious consequences and they know how to work with young people on the topic. Additionally they can will be more conscious about Internet safety and can educate young people on the matter. They will be motivated to take action against hate speech and stand up for human rights, by creating new actions and initiatives. We plan to use non-formal methods, such as group work, role-play, simulations, reflection, online research, movie, work in pairs, practical workshops, activity in town etc. After the project participants will carry out workshops in their local communities.
Participant profile:
Participants will be youth workers (18+) directly working with young people and disadvantaged groups. Some of the participants are working with victims of hate speech, some of them are working with youth with fewer opportunities who are one of the most potential group to be victimized. All youth workers are involved with partner organizations, either as voluntary or paid youth workers or youth leaders. They all will be looking for new competences to work with human rights education and hate speech topics. They are ready to share their experiences and good practices and they want to take initiative and action either against hate speech or for human rights. Participants must be able to communicate in English.
