Training Course
6-27 March 2021 | Online, Belgium - FL
Background of the training
Peace education in times of pandemics, the climate crisis, right-wing politics on the rise, and ongoing global injustices is needed more than ever. But what does it really mean to include justice aspects in trainings, seminars, and educational projects? How can we include the values of SCI, such as social justice, activism, climate justice, global justice, etc. into our work as trainers?
In this online Training of Trainers, we discuss the most important skills, methods, and approaches to get in a good flow while initiating, organising and managing educational projects. As an extra, we will have a closer look at how power structures can be reproduced in the organisation of projects and how we could integrate SCI values on all levels of organising educational projects.
The main topics of the training are:
We expect all participants to come up with a (small) educational project they would like to conduct online or offline until September 2021 on their own. The trainers will support them in this process during the training and also afterward. We set this training up to be interactive, fun, and with a diverse range of methods, with movement and interactivity. During this project, we want to create an atmosphere of peace, empathy, belonging, and safety within our group. We have made positive experiences with online training projects in the past few months and are excited about creating group dynamics across computer screens. This training is funded by the European Commission as part of the Erasmus+ programme.
