TOY - Trainers Online for Youth
This is a reference for Anuschka Ruge
The training aimed to reform a functioning Feminist Working Group that pushes the work on feminist issues within the organisation.
We wanted to give space for the participants to discover their own identity as feminist and women*men and shed light on feminism in a historical and global context. Further, we worked on gender and society, labour and body. In the last step, the participants developed a roadmap to structure their work after the training.
The group consisted of 6 participants from Albania, Austria, Italy, Israel, Latvia and the Netherland.
The team of three people came from Armenia, Germany and New Zealand.
For the training, I selected non-formal educational methods that focused on identity reflection and development such as Embodiment methods like Journey of my Body and Visual Practices like Body Map. Besides the educational programme, I created an additional self-care offer.
The group left the training with a roadmap for the upcoming six months. In the feedback from the participants especially elaborated on the personal development during the week.
I was the only trainer. I developed the session outlines after agreeing with the responsible leadership member who joined the training as well.
