The evaluation of the Human Rights Education Youth Programme, encompassing the period 2009 ‐2015, takes stock of the activities and measures implemented by the Youth Department and their impact on the practice of human rights education by youth organisations and young people.
The evaluation is based on different sources: an online survey for the former participants, organisers, trainers, etc. of the activities organised within the programme; interviews with people from the Youth and Education Departments of the Council of Europe; European Steering Committee on Youth and Advisory Council on Youth (in total, 11 interviews);
reports and evaluation summaries from various activities. It builds on the results and recommendations of the first evaluation of the programme conducted in 2009 and covering the period 2000‐2008.
This evaluation covers the years 2009 – 2015 and coincides as well with the review of the implementation of the Council of Europe Charter on Education for Democratic Citizenship and Human Rights Education, into which youth organisations and other NGOs also contributed. Both, the evaluation and the review will be presented during the 3rd Forum on
Human Rights Education with Young People “Living Equality, Living Dignity” that will take place in October 2016 at the European Youth Centre in Budapest.
