"All Rights for All" training course took place...
"All Rights for All" is realised... Human rights action is a neverending road...
“All Rights for All” is an international training course developed by Young Society Initiative for Youth Services and Training in the framework of EC YOUTH Programme Support Measures Action 5 funded by Turkish National Agency. “All Rights for All” training course took place in Adakule Hotel, Izmir between 12 and 20 October 2006.
“All Rights for All” training course was structured for the development of multipliers in human rights education in European level. The training course was the 1st event organised in the framework of the European-wide campaign “All Different All Equal” in Turkey.
During the eight days, 18 participants who are coming from 7 different countries (Bulgaria, Greece, Italy, Poland, Romania, the Netherlands and Turkey) have found the opportunity to share, discuss, experience and learn about the concepts of human rights and the practical methods to make them a reality. Training course provided an interactive intercultural environment for the participants by the help of the facilitation of three experienced trainers in youth work; Agnieszka TATERA, Serhan KARATAS and Behrooz AFSHARI.
Young Society Initiative Speaker and one of the trainers of the project Serhan KARATAS evaluated the training course as; “Training course was a challenging process for all of us, as the participants found the opportunity to evaluate themselves. In the end it was very fruitful and we even came up with many ideas for taking action in the future. We are glad that the training course met its goals. It was amazing to see the participants’ enthusiasm and ambition at the end of the training course. The presentations of the new projects were great”.
At first the participants looked in themselves and raised the awareness on human rights issues. They enhanced their knowledge and skills on the basis of non-formal education and more precisely on human rights education. In the 2nd part of the training course they are trained on project management and they came up with ideas to develop new projects to multiply their knowledge and use their new skills.
The projects that become ready in training course are “Democracy and Human Rights” seminar, “Human Rights on the stage of Europe-Theatre as a tool for human rights education” youth exchange”, “Connecting through culture and human rights” youth exchange, “We are all human” training course, and “In the culture of human rights” seminar; two of the projects are already applied for a grant on YOUTH Programme on 1st November 2006 deadline and other projects will be applied on 1st February and 1st April “YOUTH in ACTION” deadlines.
