🏢 About the local organisation
P.E.A.C.E.- Promoting European Awareness to Contrast Extremism is an Erasmus+ KA1 multi-action project AIMED to raise awareness, among youth workers and young people, on the wide-spread of different forms of populism and hate speech in the nowadays societies using propaganda and rhetoric to incite racism and xenophobia and then consequently promote anti-racist approaches in Europe.
The project included a Training Course, held in 2019, an Advance Planning Visit, held in 2020, and two Virtual Youth Exchanges, all conceived to ensure an integrated pedagogical approach to promote anti-racist approaches, by involving both youth workers, activists, young people and indirectly local associations and communities.
💼 What the programme involves
The virtual youth exchange forecast in July will be based on non formal education and the different activities will be structured according to three main specific objectives:
to raise awareness among young people on hate speech online and offline used to incite racism and xenophobia in their countries and at European level;
to detect the roots and different forms of hate speech used to promote populist approaches;
to make the young people experimenting new digital tools to afterwards raise awareness, applying anti-racist approaches.
Only 3 hours a day, from 15:00 to 18:00 CET will be dedicated to plenary online activities, while some individual or preparatory activites will be forecast during the morning of each day.
For this project it is not required any inscription fees.
