Objectives

Today we face hugely increased number of humanitarian crisis, caused by conflicts, disasters and climate change. On behalf of the increased variations of such challenge, “Steps Towards Humanitarian Action” was a training course with two stages, aiming to uncover and analyze the ways how young people can lead and drive solutions in humanitarian action, among youth workers, young professionals, volunteers or trainers coming from EU and EECA region. For that mission, training course aimed to: raise awareness about humanitarian response to conflict and disaster; promote youth capacity building and share best practices in humanitarian settings; prioritize the rights, participation and leadership of young people; discover how young people can lead and drive solutions in humanitarian action; analyze key lessons for meaningful engagement of young people in humanitarian response; support the engagement of young people throughout the key stages of the humanitarian cycle; explore the tools of enabling humanitarian access to populations in need, such as refugees/asylum seekers and migrants; equip them with the skills, such as communication, critical thinking, empathy and problem-solving; provide a space for experience exchange; empower participants to use new competences farther in their target groups.
