Training Course: "Youth Exchanges for Civic Engagement"
11-15 May 2020 | Bonn, Germany

The idea of the training course is owed to the current situation in Europe and the need to promote awareness of democracy, participation and critical thinking about political and social issues as well as to enable youth to play an active role in political life.

The main objectives of the training are:

- To work on how civic education can become an integral part of youth exchanges

- To discuss about human rights and human rights education in youth work

- To develop critical learning skills in the context of youth work
