The Compass National Training Course on Human Rights Education "Human in YOUnity" was held from 22 to 7 May in Łódź, Poland. The training is organised by Kobiety.lodz.pl Association (KobieTY) in cooperation with WICI Association. The activity is an integral part of the Human Rights Education Youth Programme for 2023.

 The training course brought together 18 youth work practitioners and youth leaders from across Poland and supported them in developing their abilities to respond to human rights violations and promote a culture of human rights.

The programme, based on Compass methodologies, paid a specific focus on relating human rights and “Nature rights” violations and on peace education. The participants practiced tools for better understanding of each other and human needs, respect for diversity, and fostering solidarity.

 As a result of the training, the participants planned follow-up activities through their youth organisations, institutions and initiatives in their communities.

 These activities include multisectoral components which provide collaboration between the police services, NGOs, Ukrainian and Polish communities. The educational team and participants will meet in June to monitor the progress and support further actions.
