The primary aim of this project was to increase the quality and support innovation of non-formal education and human rights education in partner organisations by training practitioners and improving their capacity in digital youth work. The growing need for digital competence and digital safety in youth work has become increasingly important due to rapid technological advancements and the accelerated adoption of digital tools since the COVID-19 pandemic. However, despite the increasing reliance on technology, many youth workers and educators lack the necessary digital skills and knowledge to fully integrate these tools into their work. As an international organisation, we collectively decided together with our members, that addressing these gaps was crucial to ensuring that young people not only develop the technical skills they need but also understand the importance of digital safety and responsibility. Moreover, the rise of online threats, such as cyberbullying, misinformation, and data privacy issues, underlined the need for member organisations to build their capacity to address these topics among young people. Therefore, we aimed to empower youth workers and practitioners in non-formal education to effectively use digital technologies in their work and to support young people in developing the digital skills needed to navigate today’s digital world responsibly. Our specific objectives were: - To gather trainers, educators, youth workers and other practitioners in non-formal education with young people, and equip them with knowledge, skills and attitudes needed to support young people in improving their digital competences and protecting their digital safety. - To support the quality of human rights education in the era of digital transformation by increasing capacities of the organisations and youth workers in digital and ICT literacy and online safety. - To encourage practitioners to integrate digital tools in their current activities and use them to their advantage in fresh, creative and digitally safe formats. - To tackle the ways of addressing different topics through digital tools, taking into consideration how digitalization changed our lives and, especially, the youth sector. - To strengthen the network of like-minded individuals and organisations and encourage the collaborations for future projects and follow-up plans related to human rights education and digital youth work. To summarize, the core topics targeted by this project were digital competencies, digital tools, and digital safety. We aimed for a comprehensive approach to cover all the three dimensions. We created digital output called FREIRE - that will aid youth workers and human rights educators to create effective educational opportunities online and on hybrid settings.
