In 3 full working days, you will further develop your competences to make your group activities with overnight stays in the youth sector more inclusive and diversity sensitive.

Inclusion and diversity are important priorities in the European youth programmes, but not all activities are tailored to a wide range of needs. This training course invites youth workers, event organisers and facilitators to improve their practices to make their group activities with overnight stays in the youth sector (e.g. exchanges, courses, seminars, team volunteering) more inclusive so everyone is able to feel welcome and participate regardless of their individual background and needs.

In this course you will:

• Reflect on why inclusion and diversity are important and how they relate to you and your organisation.
• Become aware of the needs of (potential) participants and the variety of barriers that might hinder them to feel welcome and safe to participate.
• Explore the different aspects of inclusive and diversity-sensitive activity design (including logistics, methods, team and communication) and understand how you can prepare for and adapt to barriers and needs.
• Share practical tools, methods, resources and approaches that offer support in organising and facilitating inclusive and diversity-sensitive activities.
• Take concrete steps to improve your practice.
