Anti-racism in Practice and as Practice: TC2

Training Course

5-14 March 2025 | Färnebo Folkhögskola, Österfärnebo, Sweden

This training course invites partipants to increase their capacity in addressing youth participation and anti-racism from a holistic perspective for positive social change.

Are you a youth worker who is passionate about engaging youth in anti-racism and social justice? Do you want to develop your capacities in working towards counteracting racism and xenophobia in your daily work? This project contributes to increased capacity in addressing youth participation and anti-racism from a holistic perspective for positive social change. 

PeaceWorks, together with our partner organisations, are now offering our second training course on anti-racism for youth workers. We see an increasing need for practical knowledge and strategies on how to tackle xenophobia and racism in contemporary Europe. We often meet people in the youth sector who express concern regarding the relationship between the rise of xenophobia and racism among young people and the decreasing youth participation in society. The training course addresses these issues by strengthening the capacities of youth workers to counteract racism and xenophobia in their daily work as well as their capacities to actively support anti-racist struggles and implement anti-racist projects.

When and Where?

The project consists of two course weeks, we are now recruiting for the second course week but you are welcome to apply even if you have not taken part of TC1: 

  • TC2: 5th to 14th of March 2025. Location: Österfärnebo, Sweden. 

Who can participate?

This is a project for youth workers who want to develop their capacities in anti-racist work through a systemic approach and creative methods. The requirements for participation are as follows:

  • You should be at least 18 years old
  • You should have been working with young persons for at least 6 months
  • Ideally, you should have experience with working with youth from different social backgrounds.

Moreover, it is important that participants are willing to reflect on their own position as youth workers, different power dynamics, norms and stereotypes as well as their own role in reproducing these.
