This training course was developed to address the specific requirements and goals of partners dealing with difficult issues such as youth empowerment, inclusion of young people, diversity, anti-radicalization of youth, and human rights education. Some partners focus on working with youth groups of refugee or migrant backgrounds and the communities in Germany, Poland, and Ireland. Other partners address topics like equality, equity, and social inclusion of youth facing fewer opportunities in Estonia, Italy, and Slovenia. Some partners prioritize anti-radicalization of youth in Poland, Hungary, and Greece, while others are dedicated to engaging young people in local community life in France, Italy, and Germany.
