I was one of the 4 trainers of two. We built the program in close cooperation with local organizers as well as organised the workshops. I mainly managed the workshops on group dynamics, team building and led sessions on Human Rights in EaP countries (with a focus on Gender Issues and LGBT Rights), Project Management, Youth in Action Programme, etc.
