Edu Model
Explore our dedicated Education Model for an in-depth look at our unique approach to combating hate speech through youth work, encompassing both educational theory and engaging activities tailored for youth workers and young people.
Hate Speech Prevention: YOUTH EDUCATION MODEL
Our educational model, designed for youth workers, has two primary goals. First, it equips them with both theoretical understanding and practical skills to identify and counteract hate speech in all its forms, both online and offline. Second, it empowers them to confidently guide young people in proactive community engagement and advocacy against hate speech. This model not only enhances awareness but also fosters critical thinking and active participation in societal discussion, enabling youth to combat hate speech in ways that resonate with them.
The stakeholders of the B4H8 project and our newly developed educational Model are the project’s partner organisations, youth workers, young people, various youth NGOs, youth influencers, and decision-makers in participating countries. Their involvement is crucial in shaping and driving our initiatives forward.
