Join us for our Songs for Rights Training, October 13-16th 2023, at the Landesmusikakademie, Berlin!
Songs for Rights training offers a unique approach to human rights education that combines the power of music and the principles of human rights.

What to expect from the training?
Get ready for a hands-on, interactive, and praxis-oriented experience! We believe in learning by doing, which is why our program includes 2 online coaching sessions (1 before and 1 after the training), 4 intensive training days at the Landesmusikakademie Berlin, and a toolkit with video tutorials for your continued learning.
For you to get the best out of the training, we have designed a variety of activities and exercises that you will participate in, as both a workshop participant and facilitator. You'll also receive feedback from our trainers to help you improve. And as a special bonus, you'll get the chance to write, compose, and record your own song during the training.
So get ready to dive in and take your skills to the next level!

Songs For Rights (INA gGmbh) (Youth NGO)
Songs for Rights uses music as a tool to educate, empower and invite people around the world into the movement to protect and advance Human Rights.
We give young people and youth workers an opportunity to learn about Human Rights through music, express their views on important issues, and become active change makers by producing songs and music videos, reaching out to peers, community stakeholders and policymakers.
Since 2019, Songs for Rights became a YEPP EUROPE initiative at the Institute for Community Education/International Academy Berlin (INA gGmbH) and has been further developed within the framework of YEPP EUROPE’s work towards youth and community empowerment. Collaborations have also been carried out with human and children’s rights experts, such as Right Now and Articolo 12, and through further pilot projects in Germany and Italy.
