Share the Right Story

“Share the right story” is a training course that aims at making youth workers and trainers aware of the many and various uses of the non formal educational methods of storytelling and show them how it can be used to work with young people / volunteers / youth leaders. Particularly the competences gained will help them addressing the topics of online hate speeches.

Topics:

• storytelling,
• online hate speeches,
• global education.

Objectives:

• to analyze the increased impact that stories (and media) have on phenomena such as “hate speech”, intolerance and open racism. We will discuss the new needs for awareness, ethics and knowledge that come with the social media and digital era;
• to explore the concept of “transformational storytelling”: using storytelling as an innovative tool to address change and personal development;
• to identify, understand and practise key elements and skills for storytelling, and explore their potential benefits for learning and employability;
• to inspire and share good practices of how to use storytelling in non formal education and in youth work.

Working methods: The activities will be based on non-formal and experiential learning methodologies, as well as nature based methods, all centered on different aspects of Storytelling. We will work on the most classic and traditional forms (storytelling circles around bonfires) to the most contemporary, like cinema, comics and videogames.

Profile of participants: youth workers, social youth workers, youth group leader, youth officer, municipal youth service responsible, EVS mentors, youth exchange responsible person, youth coach (youth initiatives), etc.
