- Identity – you will explore uniqueness of each person and look for ways how to prevent discrimination based on differences among people.
- Awareness – you will get a chance to look at your own mental patterns and how to liberate yourself from them.
- Communication that connects people – you will learn basics of nonviolent communication as an approach that fosters connection.
- Imagination – you will train and expand our ability to imagine different ways of functioning with others, outside the usual frames and patterns.
- Design of educational programmes – you will practically test how to design and deliver programmes which contribute to creating a fairer and more inclusive environment in youth work.
