Training Course
5-11 September 2024 | Zadar, Croatia
Gender-based violence is violence directed against a person because of that person's gender or violence that affects persons of a particular gender disproportionately, as defined by the European Commission. Based on the recognised needs, and supported by staff members with extensive experience in the field, we have developed this training course for youth workers doing their first steps in developing educational activities for prevention of gender-based violence.
This TC is intended for youth workers and other professionals who are new to the field and want to gain knowledge and basic skills for developing and running educational activities for prevention of gender-based violence. We are expecting the group of participants who have background in youth work, are new to the topic of gender-based violence prevention, and are part of the local organisations planning to establish activities and educational workshops on the topic of GBV prevention.
Participants are expected to gain: understanding and basic skills of non-formal educational methods for work on the topic, understanding the topics of gender, gender equality, violence, violence prevention. By the end of the event participants are expected to develop local level activities plans dedicated to prevention of gender-based violence, to be implemented as part of the work they do in the organisations they are active in.
The training course is developed in line with the Youth Goal 2: Equality of All Genders, and contributes to the following objectives of the goal:
End gender-based violence by addressing and tackling it effectively in all its forms.
Eliminate stereotypical gender roles and embrace diverse gender identities in education systems, family life, the workplace, and other areas of life.
Ensure equal access to formal and non-formal education, and that the design of education systems follows gender-sensitive approaches.
The training course will be based on non-formal education and learning-by-doing methods. The first days of the training will provide space for getting to know participants and team building, learning about the Erasmus+ program and Youthpass, non-formal education in youth work, and understanding the realities of participating countries on existing programs for prevention of gender-based violence. Days 4-6 of the educational program are dedicated to understanding the concept of gender and acting according to different sex and gender, understanding violence and gender-based violence, different positions in violence, and reacting to acts of violence from the bystander position. Last 2 days of the training course are dedicated to providing space for participants to develop plans of actions/activities they will take/organise in their local communities after the event, evaluation of the event, and the Youthpass ceremony.
*Participants are expected to, in preparation for the event, finalise the preparatory online learning course. Preparatory online course will be accessible prior to the start of the event.
