Outcomes

No Offence Booklet

One of the direct outcomes of the TC No Offence was the No Offence booklet based on the Training Course. This way youth workers that did not have the chance to participate in the course can still benefit from the methods and content developed in the TC No Offence

Download or order the No-Offence booklet from www.salto-youth.net/NoOffence/
All the methods developed at the course are available in the SALTO Toolbox for Training
