TOY - Trainers Online for Youth
This is a reference for Gvantsa Chagunava
The training course "Stop Bullying" aim was to help youth Identify and Prevent Bullying. NGO ”Institute for Nonviolent Communication” works on this topic already for 5 years, however, we still face a lack of skills and knowledge to identify bullying around us. Training courses empowered youth to take an action.
25 youth has participated in each Training course from Georgia, Azerbaijan, Moldova, Italy, and Estonia.
Non-formal educational methods were used - icebreakers, teambuilding exercises, discussions, group work, creative workshops. Participants were asked to fulfill the preparatory tasks through e-learning modules, which gave a basic knowledge about concepts of the topic and the most important international organizations and enabled the participants to speak the same language of Human rights and bullying. This part included articles, interviews, short movies - participants also worked in small groups.
Participants learned new techniques of nonviolent communication and nonviolent actions that could be used in their everyday life. This was done with a special focus on experimental learning through simulations and sharing best practices and analyzing case studies.
In General, the participants went home with a "bag" full of ideas and methods on how to identify, prevent and react to bullying and to promote equal treatment to all in their communities.
