Description of the tool
Guide for the Use of the Competence Matrix This Competence Matrix has been developed within the project 2025-2-DE04-KA210-YOU-000382037 “Identity Decode – Youth Work Strategies for Navigating Online Manipulation” to support the professional development of youth workers working on identity-based narratives, critical engagement, dialogue facilitation, emotional safety, and conflict management. The Matrix is aligned with the Council of Europe’s European Training Strategy (ETS) competence-based approach to youth work and supports the development of knowledge, attitudes, skills, and behaviours required for effective youth work practice in these areas. You can find more information about the ETS framework here. The Matrix provides a structured framework for understanding, assessing, and developing the key competences needed to facilitate learning processes with young people on sensitive social issues, democratic participation, and resilience to online manipulation and polarisation. The Matrix can be used by: Youth workers – for self-reflection, self-assessment, and planning their professional development. Youth organisations and trainers – for designing training activities, mentoring processes, and learning pathways for youth workers. Project partners and stakeholders – for supporting a common understanding of the competences addressed by the Identity Decode project.
